Flagstaff’s record run of snowless days this fall could come to an end tonight or tomorrow.

The National Weather Service is predicting about a half-inch of snow will fall in Flagstaff as a cold front sweeps across northern Arizona through Thursday. Up to 2 inches of snow could accumulate in far northeastern Arizona by the time the front moves out late tomorrow.

Preceding the storm will be strong winds today and tonight that will gust up to 40 mph, with some areas seeing peak gusts of 60 mph.

Light snow is expected to arrive in Flagstaff overnight Wednesday and persist into Thursday. Daytime highs tomorrow will be 10 to 15 degrees below normal, with dry and warmer weather forecast for the weekend and early next week.

If measurable snow is recorded at Pulliam Airport Thursday, it would be the ninth latest first snow of the season in Flagstaff since records began in 1899. The latest first snow ever fell on Jan. 15, 2006.

But if the snow melts by Dec. 25, it will mark the 24th time since 1899 that Christmas Day in Flagstaff has no snow on the ground.

Following is the detailed National Weather Service forecast for the coming week:
