Good morning and happy Tuesday, Hoosiers! Yesterday’s forecast went as planned with most folks not receiving any snowfall accumulation and a couple reports of a dusting to half an inch type snow. We saw a couple local weather sources forecasting 1″ of snow and never understood that call as a lot of dry air had to be overcome initially.
Today will feature lots of clouds and another cold day as we watch a big southern storm begin to “make the curve” and impact the interior east. Places as close as eastern Ohio will deal with heavy snow tonight and early Wednesday. Additionally, locations as far south as east Tennessee will have accumulating snow by late tonight and early Wednesday.
Back here on the “home front” we’re looking at our next chance of snow arriving Wednesday afternoon. The wind trajectory off Lake Michigan should allow a couple of lake-enhanced snow bands to push south into north-central Indiana, primarily from IND and points north. It’s impossible to pinpoint with any degree of certainty the precise locations of these snow bands, but should your neighborhood end up under one of these snow squalls, don’t be surprised if you pick up a quick coating to 1″ of snow Wednesday afternoon/ evening.
Most model data (below) shows the lake-enhanced snow showers and embedded heavier squalls arriving Wednesday afternoon. We’ll have a complete forecast update (and probable video) here later tonight. Make it a great day.
