Parade Of Upper Level Disturbances…In what’s been a seemingly unending round of upper level disturbances, we still have 2 more to deal with before we can welcome in high pressure to allow a brief window of quieter weather by late week.

After a mostly cloudy day with a few flurries, a more organized band of snow will roll into south-central Indiana after dark (towards 9p-10p across western areas before overspreading the rest of south-central Indiana) and could deposit a quick inch of snow during the overnight for our friends in Bloomington, Nashville, Seymour, and Columbus. The snow will depart about as quickly as it arrives and will be “outta here” before sunrise Tuesday.

One last upper level feature will race through the state Tuesday evening and early Wednesday with yet another round of scattered snow showers (dusting level stuff).

We’ll then welcome in a cold front Thursday evening and early Friday morning (one of those days where the high will likely come at midnight). The frontal passage will be a dry one, but we’ll notice an uptick in gusty northerly winds during the day Friday. High pressure will then center itself over the Ohio Valley Saturday with a return of sunshine. It’ll be cold though!

A more organized storm will lift northeast into the Ohio Valley by the 2nd half of the weekend. From this distance it appears as if it’ll be one of those “wintry mix to rain” scenarios. More on this and the overall pattern to close the month later today in our Client video update!
