StormTracker8: Light snow possible Sunday

Richmond, Va. (WRIC) -- Clear skies will be with us for tonight and it will be a very cold night with lows in the middle to upper teens but when you factor in the wind it will feel more like 10 to 15.

We will start your Friday off with plenty of sunshine, however a few clouds will move in during the afternoon making it partly sunny. It will be a chilly day with highs near 40 but with that breeze it will feel more like the middle 30s.

A weak weather system will slide across Central Virginia early Saturday morning providing clouds and the risk of a few passing showers. That system will move out by the late morning and by the afternoon we should be looking at some sunshine breaking out across the region. It will be a seasonable day with highs in the upper 40s.

The next concern is the chance for snow on Sunday, and finally our weather models are starting to show some agreement and it is not good for those of you that want a huge snowstorm. The newest information shows a weaker storm, less moisture and a little more south and east for a track. This will give most of Central Virginia about 1"-2" of snow, while areas to the south and east closer to the Virginia-North Carolina line and east to the Tidewater will see more of a mix of snow, sleet and rain and maybe pick up 1" or less.

Monday is Martin Luther King Jr Day, and the sunshine will return to Central Virginia with highs in the upper 30s.

Tuesday will be a chilly day with highs near 32 under mostly sunny skies.

Wednesday will also feature mostly sunny skies, and it will remain chilly with highs in the middle 30s.

Looking ahead to next Thursday and Friday another weather system will approach the region and that could bring us the chance of some showers with highs in the lower to Middle 40s.
