About this listen

Good morning. Maine. I'm DJ Huzz. Grab that second cup of coffee, folks, because today is a wild ride. Right now you're stepping out to 33 degrees. Feels like late February. but a cold front barreling in from the Great Lakes is pushing warm air ahead of it. and by this afternoon, thermometers jump into the 40s. Central Vermont hits 46 degrees. That's 17 degrees above normal for February. The Northeast Kingdom reaches 43. Even southern Vermont warms to 39. In the next 24 hours. Soak up every minute of it. Because what comes next is brutal. That front arrives late morning with scattered rain and snow showers. Central Vermont catches a brief rain chance around 9 A.M. The Kingdom sees a mix around 10 A.M. Southern Vermont stays mostly dry. Watch for gusts to 35 miles an hour in the Champlain Valley. They'll rattle the windows. Tonight the atmosphere flips like a light switch. Arctic air crashes in behind the front. Southern Vermont drops to 16 degrees. Central falls to 15. The Kingdom sinks to 13. A weak low develops along the stalled front, squeezing out 1 to 3 inches of snow across southern areas overnight into Sunday. Northern spots see less. Either way, untreated roads get slick. Then Sunday night. The real punch lands. Lows plunge below zero statewide. The Kingdom bottoms out at minus 7. Southern Vermont hits minus 5. That's the kind of cold where your car door handle bites back. Monday stays locked in the deep freeze. Highs barely crack the teens to low 20s. Looking further out. Tuesday brings clouds and late day snow, maybe 1 to 3 inches. Wednesday clears with highs rebounding into the 40s. Thursday and Friday stay unsettled with mixed precipitation as temperatures trend warmer. One bright spot. We're gaining over 3 minutes of daylight. The equinox is just 2 weeks out. Charge your phones tonight. Cold this deep drains batteries faster than you'd think. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. Stay safe, stay prepared. and enjoy the day.
