Snow And Freezing Rain For The 2nd Half Of The Weekend…

Brief: Accumulating snow and freezing rain

Forecaster: McMillan

What: Accumulating snow and freezing rain

When: Late Sunday morning into Sunday evening

Temperatures: Lower 20s rising to near freezing by Sunday night

Wind: SE to S 5-15 MPH

Blowing/ drifting: Minimal to non-existent

After a cold and quiet open to the weekend, a disturbance will overspread moisture over the top of a modifying (still cold enough for trouble) air mass as we close the weekend. Snow will likely reach Indianapolis and surrounding communities late morning Sunday, continuing into the afternoon hours. Snowfall intensity will be light with occasional moderate bursts. As relatively milder air aloft gets pulled north, precipitation will end as light freezing rain Sunday evening. While we don’t anticipate heavy accretion, a light glaze will likely be noted on top of the freshly fallen snow Sunday evening.

Confidence: Medium to high

Next Update: 5p
