First Plowable Snow Of The Season…It may only be mid November, but we’re already talking about our first plowable snow of the season. Let’s get right to the bullet point details of what you need to know:
Our snowfall forecast first issued Saturday morning remains. The falling snow should be east of the region before the morning commute gets underway Monday, but the damage will already be done. Our snow removal companies will be hard at work across the region. The big story Monday will be fresh arctic air invading through the day along with gusty winds and renewed snow showers developing Monday night.
Periodic Snow Showers; Reinforcing Arctic Air…If you haven’t realized another wintry week was upon us, now you will! Individual disturbances will move southeast into mid week helping to serve as arctic air reinforcements and snow shower producers. Another important note- wind chill values will be below zero Tuesday morning. Plan on severe cold.
Late Week Storm System…The details are “murky,” but a storm system will attack the cold air late week with a wintry mix of rain and snow. More around this in the days ahead. For now, the focus remains on tonight’s snow event.
Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:
Our snowfall forecast remains unchanged from Saturday morning, but we’ll include mention of isolated 5″ reports across central Indiana to account for banding potential.

Quick-hitting Bullet Points:
The afternoon model suite is in in it’s entirety and it leaves us with about as many questions as answers :-)…
Four of our more trusted short-term forecast models are split 50/50 on the outcome Sunday night. In the snowy camp you have the NAM and European. In the drier camp you have the GFS and GEM. Past experience with this type event says the European and NAM solutions may have the better handle and we think the drier modeling will shift a touch northwest with time over the upcoming 24 hours. The difference between camps would be a nice 2-3″ type snowfall for the Monday morning commute across central Indiana versus nothing more than a few flurries. More as the details become clearer…
We still forecast light snow to overspread central Indiana Saturday evening and night. While this won’t be a big deal, a dusting to 1″ of snow is a good bet across most of central Indiana, especially from the I-70 corridor and points north. Roads may be slick in spots on your way to church Sunday morning.
One thing that’s a certainty is that another blast of arctic air will invade along with scattered snow showers early next week. This push of bitter air will be even colder than this weeks.
In the longer term, plenty of wintry “fun and games” remain. In fact, today’s 12z European has the look set to offer more meteorological headaches come late next week. Ah, the season is only beginning… 🙂
