Weekend Snow…While we’re not looking at a significant storm system this weekend, we’ll deal with waves of accumulating snow through the period.  A period of light snow will continue today, especially through early afternoon and then we’ll note renewed snow developing to our west this evening.  This area of snow is in response to additional upper level energy moving off the Rockies and will slide into central Indiana late tonight into Sunday.  Finally, there’s the chance portions of central and south-central Indiana see a third wave of light snow Sunday night into early Monday morning.  By the time all is said and done, we’re anticipating 1.5″ to 2″ of snow this weekend for most, with a few 3″ reports where snow persists.  It’ll be a cold weekend, but nothing as bitter as the past few days have been.

Another Arctic Blast…A sprawling arctic high will settle into the Ohio Valley to open the work week. This will supply dry weather, but yet another bitterly cold air mass.  We’ll note below zero overnight lows and highs only in the teens under mostly clear conditions.

Some Questions Around Late Week…Model data is in disagreement with the handling of the southern and northern streams of the jet late next week. As of now, we’re siding with a “middle of the road” approach and introducing snow showers into your forecast Thursday into Friday.  The possibilities range anywhere from an accumulating snow event to dry skies with moderating temperatures. Stay tuned.
