01.01.21 Weather Bulletin: Prospects Of Accumulating Snow Increasing Tomorrow Night…

Freezing Rain Changes To Rain; Accumulating Snow Tomorrow Night? Low pressure will track into the eastern Great Lakes tonight. Temperatures will slowly rise through the day, allowing freezing rain to transition to rain. Slick roads this morning will slowly improve through the afternoon.

Attention will then shift to a trailing piece of upper level energy Saturday night and Sunday morning. While thermal profiles are marginal at best, the track and strength of the upper level energy will lead to the potential of accumulating wet snow Saturday night and Sunday morning. These are the kind of systems that can manufacture their own cold and result in “surprise” snow events for some. As things stand now, we expect a band of accumulating snow to develop across central Indiana into western Ohio tomorrow night and Sunday morning. We’ll keep a close eye on data the rest of the day and update later this evening.

Weak high pressure will nose into the region as we kick off the new work week, allowing sunshine to return.
