The newschannel 3 storm Team Continues to track a major winter storm through our area, with impacts tonight through part of the weekend. As we move through our early friday evening, snow will continue to fall across parts of the peninsulas and the Eastern Shore before all of the snow comes to an end and rain overspreads the area. The rain could be heavy at times tonight through early saturday, so keep that in mind. Now, with the rain moving in, that means temperatures will be warming up, too. In fact, we re expecting temperatures top rise into the mid 40s byp saturday morning. We ll likely start saturday with scattered rain. But there will be some breaks with the rain from time to time as the center of the storm pushes just offshore. High temperatures will be in the mid 40s in the morning, then afternoon, just in time for more snow showers to move in on the backside of the storm. While some accumulations are possible on grassy areas, it may be tough for a lot of the snow to stick to the pavement because most of our temperatures should be above freezing in wake of the rain. We ll keep an eye on it through the day. By sunday, while some slick spots will be possible by morning, most of the wintry weather and rain will be gone. In fact, we ll see decreasing clouds and highs in the mid 30s. More sunshine is on tap for monday with highs in the upper 40s. We ll be back in the mid 50s by tuesday. Rain moves back in by wednesday. In addition to the snow and rain, we will see very strong winds. Winds will start to crank up on today with gusts to near 40 mph.

The f16 is a multi roll aircraft. Its a workhorse for the air force with a proven track record. The first gulf war. Afghanistan. And iraq. Part of the pilots traning involves rigorous maneuvers such as dog fighting. This training is absolutely critical to teaching our young pilots how to maneuver to one another.
