–Flooding is NOT<\/strong> expected today<\/em><\/p>\n

Another cold night across the state with lows reaching the low 30°Fs across the Urban Corridor and dipping below 30°F over the Southwest Slope. Today, the system that brought widespread<\/span> rainfall, cloud cover and snow to the higher elevations is well to the north of the state. Behind the system, a much drier air mass has worked its way into the state with the SSW flow aloft. Outside of a few scattered<\/span> showers over the Northwest Slope and Northern Mountains this afternoon, the state is forecast to stay dry. Temperatures will also begin to rebound with highs reaching the low 80°Fs over the eastern plains, and mid-60°Fs over the western valleys. Over the mountains, temperatures are expected to reach the mid-40°Fs to 50°F in the valleys. Temperatures are still a bit below normal for this time of year, but at this point, we’ll take it.<\/p>\n
