REPAIR. TRULY HEARTBREAKING FOOTAGE THERE. THAT SAME SYSTEM MOVED THROUGH OUR AIR YESTERDAY AND TODAY WITH SOME RAIN. NOW IT’S CLEAR OUT IN THE SKIES ARE BEGINNING TO CLEAR. FINALLY, THE SUNSHINE WILL RETURN AND IT’S ALREADY THERE FOR SOME OF US. IT’S TRYING HARD IN GREENVILLE TO CLEAR OUT. ANDERSON, YOU’VE ALREADY DONE SO. AND HOW BEAUTIFUL IS IT OUTSIDE? YOU CAN ALSO TELL BY THE TEMPERATURE, CLOUDY AND 49 AND GREENVILLE, WHAT’S 56? AND ANDERSON, WE’RE CLOUDY IN SPARTANBURG, EVEN FOGGY, 45 DEGREES. ASHEVILLE, YOU’RE BEGINNING TO SEE SOME BLUE SKIES IN BETWEEN THOSE CLOUDS. AND WE WILL ALL SEE THE SUNSHINE TOMORROW. YES. WHERE THE SUN IS SHINING, IT IS A LOT WARMER, MID TO UPPER FIFTIES IN THE WESTERN PARTS OF THE UPSTATE WAS IN THE LOW FORTIES ON THE EAST SIDE. TOMORROW MORNING WE’LL UP TO CLEAR SKIES. IT’LL BE COLD NEAR FREEZING FOR MOST OF US IN THE UPSTATE UPPER TWENTIES TO AROUND 30 IN WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA. AS WE GO HOUR BY HOUR, LOTS OF SUNSHINE TOMORROW. IT’S GOING TO BE A BEAUTIFUL FRIDAY FOR US WITH NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT WEATHER WISE. TEMPERATURES, ALL THE COOL SIDE IN THE AFTERNOON IN THE LOW FIFTIES. BUT HONESTLY, IT’S THE WARMEST DAY THAT I HAVE ON FORECAST THIS ENTIRE WEEK. ASHEVILLE AND HENDERSONVILLE, YOU’VE GOT LOW FORTIES ON THE WAY TOMORROW WITH SOME SUNSHINE. LOOK FOR A HIGH OF 53 AND ANDERSON 52 IN SPARTANBURG AND 53 DEGREES IN LAWRENCE BUT WE’RE UNFORESEEN COLD FRONT COMES ON THROUGH AND MAKES IT EVEN COLDER AS WE GO CLOSER TO THE WEEKEND. NOW EVERY DAY THIS TIME OF YEAR, I GET ASKED ABOUT IT. WAS IT GOING TO BE A WHITE CHRISTMAS? WELL, IF HISTORY TELLS US ANYTHING, IT’S CERTAINLY POSSIBLE. AS EARLY AS 2010, WE HAD SNOW ON THE GROUND. HOW ABOUT THIS YEAR? WELL, LET ME START WITH THE TEMPERATURES, BECAUSE I WANT TO TELL THE STORY GOING INTO NEXT THURSDAY. THIS WOULD BE A WEEK FROM TODAY. HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE FORTIES, BUT A SECONDARY BLAST OF COLD AIR LOOKS TO COME IN AND BRING TEMPERATURES WAY DOWN. THIS WOULD BE DECEMBER 23RD, NEXT FRIDAY, WHERE WE COULD BE IN THE SINGLE DIGITS IN THE MOUNTAINS, IN THE TEENS IN THE UPSTATE. WHAT ABOUT MOISTURE? WE NEED TO WATCH IT CLOSELY EACH DAY THIS WEEK, THIS WEEKEND. NOT A CLOUD IN THE SKY. IT’S BEAUTIFUL, BUT IT’S COLD. SO ANY RAIN COMES OUR WAY NEEDS TO BE WATCHED CLOSELY. LOOKS LIKE WE GET A SWING AND A MISS AS WE GO INTO TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY WITH GETTING CLOSE TO US, BUT NOT REALLY GIVING MUCH OF A THREAT. BUT SERIOUS, SERIOUS COLD AIR MOVES IN WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY TO WHERE SNOW WILL BE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THAT COLD AIR. AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE MOUNTAINS WILL START TO SEE SNOWFALL THIS TIME NEXT WEEK. ASHEVILLE, NORTHBOUND. IT’S THE COLD AIR THAT MOVES IN FOR THE UPSTATE. THE BIG QUESTION, DOES THAT SNOW MAKE IT UP AND OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND INTO THE UPSTATE THIS TIME NEXT WEEK? WELL, IT COULD BE AS LOW AS FLURRIES, BUT IT COULD ALSO COULD BE SOME MEASURABLE SNOW IF THINGS COME TOGETHER. OUR TWO COMPUTER MODELS ARE OFFERING DIFFERENCE SOLUTIONS. THE EUROPEAN SHOWS MAYBE SOME FLURRIES IN THE UPSTATE, WHILE THE GFS SHOWS. WHOA, WE COULD HAVE SOME SNOW. AND I TELL YOU THIS BECAUSE IT’S A WEEK OUT. I ALSO TELL YOU BECAUSE MANY OF YOU HAVE APPS AND THINGS ON YOUR PHONES THAT ARE SHOWING SNOWFLAKES ALREADY SO LET’S GET OUT IN FRONT OF IT EARLY ON. WHAT I CAN TELL YOU RIGHT NOW IS WHEN WE’RE SIX OR SEVEN DAYS OUT FROM A SYSTEM, ALL THAT I CAN TELL YOU IS IF THE PATTERN IS FAVORABLE OR IF IT’S NOT. AND RIGHT NOW, YES, IT IS FAVORABLE FOR WINTRY WEATHER. NEXT WEEK. AND THERE IS SOMETHING THAT LOOKS INTEREST THING COMING OUR WAY A WEEK FROM RIGHT NOW. SO WE JUST GOT TO PLAY IT OUT. WE JUST GOT TO WAIT AND SEE. MY WINTER WEATHER. YOU HAVE TO HAVE THESE CHECKED OUT BEFORE YOU HAVE A FULL FORECAST ABOUT. THE ONLY THING I CAN TELL YOU AT THIS POINT IS IT’S GOING TO BE COLD. I CANNOT TELL YOU. WILL IT SNOW IN YOUR TOWN? WILL IT STICK? WILL THERE BE ICE OR HOW MUCH WILL THERE FALL? WE WILL ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS AS WE GET CLOSER. SO THE BOTTOM LINE FOR LATE NEXT WEEK, THE PATTERN DOES FAVOR WINTRY WEATHER. SNOW CHANCE IS STILL REMAIN LOW, SO DON’T GET THE KIDDOS EXCITED JUST YET. MORE DETAILS WILL BE KNOWN EACH AND IT DOES LOOK LIKE IT STAYS COLD THROUGH THE 27. SO THE FULL DAY LOOKS LIKE THIS. LOTS OF SUNSHINE ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND. IT TURNS COLD MID TO UPPER FORTIES LOWS IN THE LOW TO MID TWENTIES. IT’S GOING TO BE VERY COLD IN THE NEXT WEEK WHERE THAT SECONDARY COLD BLAST COMES IN NEXT WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY. WE’RE WATCHING IT CLOSELY FOR THE UPSTATE AND RIGHT NOW IT DOES LOOK LIKE SNOW WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE MOUNTAINS WITH
