I am testing out another new feature for FLX Weather—a Weather Planner update posted the night before and focusing solely on the next day. This update is designed to especially give early risers a quick look at the day ahead so they can plan around the weather, but can be used the night before and throughout the day. This is the second post in this test series.
If you are looking for information beyond Wednesday, you can check out the post from Tuesday morning, or wait for Wednesday morning’s normal blog post.
I still have some details to work out—graphics, formatting, etc. As always, your ideas and feedback are welcome!
Wednesday, January 14, 2026
A frontal boundary will gradually strengthen over the area, leading to a slow increase in rain showers during the midday and afternoon. Low pressure will then develop to our southeast, increasing precipitation coverage and intensity while also bringing cooler air into the area.
Rain will turn over to snow near and slightly after sunset. Temperatures will drop below freezing during the evening. Snow will continue overnight and possibly well into Thursday, heavy at times. Snow accumulation by dawn Thursday will be a general 3-5 inches with additional accumulation after sunrise. Travel conditions will decline during the evening and become difficult overnight.
More information on the continuation of the snow for Thursday will be available Wednesday morning around 8 AM.
