FORECAST:
- The cold air certainly will govern the week ahead as temperatures will run well below January standards until about Wednesday, Chief Meteorologist John Ahrens said.
- However, the sun will be shining bright, and the weather will be beautiful.
- Meanwhile, we’ll be watching a big storm to develop in the Deep South later this week.
- It is still way too early to talk about what we will see here.
- Don’t be riled up or fooled by whatever you see on social media!
- The guidance will be changing a lot in the coming days.
- Keep it here for the very latest - we’ll get you through it!
Ok friends, by now you prob know about some potential drama this wknd. Hopefully, the inaccuracy of social media with the last storm taught us all that it is waay too early to tell what will happen. Keep it at @wsoctv for the latest & we will keep you informed without the hype!!! pic.twitter.com/UpORWHSKfE
