• Vermont Weather 3/6 Morning - Winter Weather Advisory
    Mar 6 2026
    Good morning. Vermont. I'm Aaron Jolly. Step outside and you'll feel that damp 20 degrees clinging to everything. The messy overnight mix — snow, sleet, the works — wrapped up around 5 A.M. The worst is behind us. Southern Vermont took the brunt. Less than an inch of accumulation, but watch for sneaky slick spots on untreated roads through mid-morning. Today climbs to 32 under mostly cloudy skies. Tonight dips to 29, then Saturday flips the script with a jump to 47. Central Vermont saw the same light snow wrapping up by 5 A.M. Roads improve as we climb to 38 this afternoon. Tonight settles at 32, then Saturday brings a dramatic warm-up — 54 degrees with rain and drizzle likely. That's a 22-degree swing in 24 hours. Northeast Vermont stayed mostly cloudy overnight, bottoming out at 20. Today reaches 39 — right on target for early March. Tonight holds at 30 before Saturday's warmth arrives. Highs near 47 with a chance of freezing drizzle early. Cover those plants if you've got anything optimistic outside. Here's your heads-up for the week ahead. Saturday brings that big warm-up — upper 40s to mid-50s with rain by evening. Sunday clears out, partly sunny, upper 40s to low 50s. Monday and Tuesday look gorgeous — sunny with highs climbing into the mid-50s. Wednesday brings rain showers back, mid-40s, before cooler air returns Thursday. One quick note — with temperatures climbing well above freezing this weekend and rain on the way, we'll be watching for potential ice jams on area rivers. Snowmelt plus rainfall can cause localized issues. See you tomorrow. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast See you tomorrow.

  • Vermont Weather March 5 Midday - 20° Above Normal
    Mar 5 2026
    Good afternoon. Vermont. I'm Aaron Jolly. That fog clinging to the valleys this morning? Consider it the appetizer. The main course arrives tonight. And it's a mixed bag. In the next 24 hours. Right now we're at 27 degrees with fog still hanging around. Central and Northeast Vermont get the best of today — mostly sunny skies, highs near 40 degrees. That's textbook early March. Southern Vermont? Clouds roll in through the afternoon with rain possible. You'll hit 39 degrees down there. Here's where things get messy. Cold air slides south tonight. That rain in Southern Vermont flips to sleet and freezing rain between 7 P.M. and 1 A.M. Then it switches to snow. A Winter Weather Advisory runs from 5 P.M. Today through noon Friday for Bennington and Windham counties. You're looking at 1 to 2 inches of snow and sleet, plus a light glaze of ice. Friday morning's commute? Plan extra time. Central Vermont catches snow after 10 P.M. — less than half an inch expected. Up in the Northeast Kingdom, just a brief snow shower around 4 A.M. Friday stays cloudy with highs in the mid 30s statewide. A few lingering snow showers early. Now the plot twist. This weekend brings a massive warm-up. Saturday climbs to the upper 40s and mid 50s. Sunday stays in the 50s. Monday and Tuesday? Upper 50s to near 60 degrees. That's 21 degrees to 20 degrees above normal for March. Spring equinox is two weeks out. Mud season starts in about four weeks. Tonight's full moon might light up that falling snow. Sunrise at 6:25 A.M., sunset at 5:47 P.M. — we're gaining over 3 minutes of daylight today. If you're driving south tonight, keep the speed down. Ice doesn't announce itself. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

    Mar 5 2026
    Good morning. Vermont. I'm Aaron Jolly. That blue sky overhead? It's lying to you. We've got a messy evening ahead. In the next 24 hours. Right now we're sitting at 29 degrees. Today climbs to 41 — about 20 degrees above normal for early March. But here's where it gets weird. Cold air slides in this afternoon and temperatures actually drop as the day goes on. Southern Vermont, you're in for a wild ride. Rain starts after noon, then things get complicated. Between 7 P.M. and 1 A.M., that rain flips to sleet and freezing rain before finally settling into snow overnight. You're looking at 1 to 2 inches by Friday morning. A Winter Weather Advisory kicks in at 5 P.M. Today and runs through noon Friday. If you've got evening plans, move them up or push them back. Central Vermont stays quieter longer. Partly sunny through the day, then a chance of snow after 10 P.M. Less than half an inch expected, but that Friday morning commute could still be slick. Northeast Vermont? You dodge the worst of it. Partly sunny today, high near 41, just a slight chance of snow toward dawn. Tonight's full moon won't stick around long. Clouds roll in statewide as that wintry mix arrives. For the weekend. Saturday brings a dramatic flip — highs climb to the upper 40s to mid 50s. Then early next week? Upper 50s to near 60 degrees. That's 15 to 20 degrees above normal. Snowmelt is coming fast. One bright spot — we're gaining over 3 minutes of daylight today. Sunrise was at 6:25, sunset at 5:47. Southern Vermont, give yourself extra time Friday morning. Those roads won't be friendly. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
