Good evening. Vermont. I'm Aaron Jolly. That dusting of snow overnight left us with about four-tenths of an inch. It’s pretty, but watch your step on the porch — freezing drizzle has created some slick spots this morning. Temperatures are sitting in the mid-20s to around 30 degrees, so it feels like winter out there right now. In the next 24 hours. But the sun is about to rescue us. Expect it to break through by late morning. And once it does, we climb fast. Southern Vermont hits 42 degrees. Central Vermont warms to 47 — that's 20 degrees above normal for early March. Even the Northeast Kingdom gets in on the thaw, topping out at 44. With light winds, it's going to feel genuinely mild this afternoon. Tonight offers a treat if you're stepping out. Skies clear completely, letting the Full Moon light up the landscape. Lows dip to 26 in the south, 24 in central areas. And a chilly 20 up in the Northeast Kingdom. Thursday starts dry, but rain arrives during the afternoon. The real drama unfolds Thursday night into Friday morning. A messy mix of freezing rain, sleet. And snow sweeps through. Southern Vermont is right in the bullseye for the most ice, so the Friday morning commute could be tricky. Then comes the turnaround. Saturday surges into the low to mid-50s with rain showers. Sunday through Tuesday, we're looking at highs in the 50s, potentially hitting 60 by Tuesday. That's 15 to 20 degrees above normal. The snowpack is going to take a hit. And we'll be watching the rivers closely for potential ice jams. Enjoy today's quiet weather, folks. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
Good evening. Vermont. I'm Aaron Jolly. That gray ceiling at 31 degrees? It's holding its breath. We've got a messy evening inbound, folks. And it's bringing a little bit of everything. Snow pushes in statewide right around 8 P.M. but here's the catch — it doesn't stay snow for long. In the next 24 hours. Southern Vermont, you're the first to see the switch. Around 9 P.M., that snow turns traitor, flipping to sleet and freezing rain overnight. You'll pick up an inch of snow before the slush takes over. It's a slippery mix down to 28 degrees.

Highs climb to 41 in the south, 43 in the northeast. And 46 degrees in central Vermont. That's a solid 19 degrees warmer than usual for early March — a real taste of spring. Thursday stays mild in the mid-40s, but another system slides in Thursday night. Freezing rain is possible, especially in central and southern Vermont. That could make for some slick travel come Friday morning. Then the pattern really flips. Saturday brings rain and a surge of warmth, with highs near 55 degrees. We stay mild through Tuesday, running 15 to 20 degrees above normal. Our snowpack is going to take a hit. Tonight's full moon rises at sunset.

Good afternoon. Vermont. I'm Jack O'Malley. Folks, enjoy the quiet while it lasts. Because tonight gets messy. A stalled warm front to our south is feeding a storm system right at us. Snow rolls in this evening. But the twist? Warmer air sneaks in overhead and turns that snow into sleet, then freezing rain. Classic March treachery. In the next 24 hours. Southern Vermont catches the worst of it. Snow starts around 7 P.M., mixes with sleet, then freezing rain creeps in toward dawn. Three to five inches pile up before it tapers off. A Winter Weather Advisory runs until 5 A.M. Wednesday. If you're driving south of Rutland tonight, take it slow. That glaze of ice is the stuff that puts cars in ditches. Push north into central Vermont and you're looking at snow from 7 P.M. Through midnight. One to three inches, maybe a hint of freezing drizzle before it quits. Lows settle near 29 degrees. Up in the Northeast Kingdom, similar story. Snow wraps up by 1 A.M. One to three inches on the ground. Lows near 25 degrees, feeling like 23. Not brutal, but that wind will find your collar. Now the good news. Wednesday is a completely different day. High pressure rolls in with sunshine and highs in the low to mid 40s. That's 19 degrees above normal for early March. Your windshield will actually be dry for once. Thursday starts quiet, then another round of freezing rain arrives Thursday night. Slick travel into Friday morning. But the weekend? Southwesterly flow pushes us into the 50s. Saturday could hit 56 degrees in central Vermont. Rain comes with it, but after tonight's wintry mix, 56 will feel like a vacation. In Sunrise at 6, 28 A.M., sunset at 5:44 P.M. We're gaining three minutes of daylight every day. The equinox is just two weeks out. Charge your phone tonight.

Good morning. Vermont. I'm Aaron Jolly. Step outside this morning and you'll feel that classic March chill. We're starting at 19 degrees under clear skies. But here's the story today. A warm front is lifting north from the mid-Atlantic. It's riding up and over the dense cold air currently parked over Vermont. This overrunning pattern sets the stage for snow by this afternoon. In the next 24 hours. Southern Vermont sees the first flakes around noon. You'll get heavy snow accumulating 2 to 4 inches. Temperatures hover near 32 degrees. The snow mixes with sleet and freezing rain this evening before ending around midnight. Watch for a glaze of ice on roads. In Central Vermont, expect partly sunny skies this morning.

Northeast Vermont holds onto the sunshine longest. Your high climbs to 39 degrees. A chance of light snow pops up after 5 P.M. Accumulation looks light, less than half an inch. Temperatures drop to 24 degrees overnight. Wednesday brings a break. Highs jump into the mid-40s under mostly sunny skies. Looking ahead, the week gets interesting. Thursday brings a chance of rain showers with highs near 45. Thursday night into Friday morning is the next window to watch. A cold air damming event could develop. This brings a chance of freezing rain for southern Vermont and the Greens. The weekend turns much warmer. Highs soar into the low 50s. This warmth, combined with rain, will melt our snowpack. We'll need to monitor rivers for potential ice jams. Charge your phone before you head out today. You're going to need it. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves.

Then the real plot twist. Wednesday the air flips. Highs jump into the 40s. Thursday and Friday bring rain chances, still in the 40s. By Saturday we could touch the 50s.

Central Vermont might see a few flurries around 9 A.M., but not much sticks. The Kingdom? Stays dry. Classic Vermont. Three different days in one state. Sunday highs only scratch 20 degrees statewide. Then Sunday night is the real kicker. Clear skies, calm winds, fresh snow on the ground. That's a recipe for brutal radiational cooling. Lows plunge to minus 6 in the south, minus 5 in central Vermont. and minus 9 in the Kingdom. That's frostbite cold. Cover every inch of exposed skin. Monday brings sunshine but no warmth.

This front triggers a dramatic temperature crash. You'll see temperatures drop 30 to 40 degrees by tonight. The sky turns partly sunny this afternoon. Winds shift from the southwest to the northwest. Expect gusts up to 25 miles an hour. Tonight brings a rush of Arctic air. Lows plunge into the teens across Southern Vermont and single digits up north. but the story isn't just the cold. It's the snow. A weak wave of low pressure rides the front. Snow develops after midnight. The best chance is across Southern Vermont. You could see a quick inch of accumulation by Sunday morning. Sunday turns much colder. Highs struggle to reach the low 20s. Any flurries end early. Then, the real deep freeze sets in Sunday night. Under clear skies, temperatures plummet. The Northeast Kingdom drops to minus 9. Central Vermont falls to minus 5. Even Southern Vermont sees lows near zero. Monday offers sunshine, but it stays bitter cold.
