Here comes the cold, some get snow this week!

By Frank Strait, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

Published Dec 5, 2017 3:50 AM EDT | Updated Dec 5, 2017 3:50 AM EDT

Copied

The turn to colder is underway. The front leading the colder air south will bring some needed rain but also cause a few gusty storms near the Mississippi River. Moisture riding over the colder air filling in will cause some snow in parts of West Texas and disturbances rounding the deep upper trough that will set up over the eastern states will cause some light snow, too. We have to watch out for mischief along the East Coast as well that can cause snow.

On social media, y'all can find me as @AccuFrank on Twitter. There's also my Facebook fan page and G+. There is also a comments section below the video where you can tell me what you think as long as it’s classy.

A generally quiet regime will be in place until Wednesday, even though sunshine will be limited in many places by high clouds streaming in from the Pacific. Things change at midweek as a new storm system takes shape...
