CLEVELAND — The snowpack continues to quickly melt, and by the end of this weekend, bare grass will be much more common! Plentiful sun and warming temperatures will both help that process.
Valentine's Day looks even warmer. Clouds are coming back late, but temps still manage to hit the middle 40s. Upper 40s to near-50 expected on Sunday and well into the 50s for Presidents Day Monday.
Temperatures will be well above average through most of the work week, with our next best shot at rain holding off until Wednesday.
With this warmth and the rain, the threat for ice jams is real. All of this moisture in our snowpack has to go somewhere. When the rivers get swollen and the ice breaks free, those jams can be a BIG concern.
