Snowy Periods Into Early Next Week…A big ole upper level low pressure system will swirl across the Ohio Valley and into the Northeast through the weekend. Individual spokes of energy will “pinwheel” through central Indiana between now and early next week. These will be efficient snow producers at times through the period. While we’re not looking at a widespread heavy snow, the persistent and rather long duration of this set-up will have most central Indiana neighborhoods accumulating between 1″ and 3″ by Monday morning. We still anticipate localized intense snow squalls to hit this afternoon and evening. If traveling during that period, please allow yourself extra time to reach your destination. We’ll have to keep close tabs on additional light snow accumulation chances Monday night into Tuesday morning as a final piece of upper level energy scoots through the state.
As for temperatures, we’ve already seen our high for the day. Temperatures will slowly fall to around freezing just after sunset. We’ll see little movement on the thermometer into the middle part of next week.
A bigger storm system looms late next week, but there are many more questions than answers right now regarding the track of this low pressure system. That picture will become clearer over the weekend.
More on all of this later today in our Client video update. Make it a phenomenal Friday!
