Highlights:
Bitter Feel; Gearing Up For More Snow…Saturday night’s storm system “split” into two and took one swath of snow across far NW IN while a second (more widespread) area of snow was laid down across central IN. Reports into the forecast office this morning indicate 2″-3″ are common across central IN, with a couple 4″ reports. Thank you for all of the snow reports and photos!
While the snow has stopped, we’ll deal with bitterly cold air and blowing snow the rest of the day. Bundle up and take it slow as you venture out. Temperatures will continue to fall into the teens and wind chill values will fall into the single digits to around zero.
Dry and cold conditions will be with us as we open the new work week, but our next weather maker will blow into town late Monday night and Tuesday morning. We still think intense snow bursts will accompany arctic reinforcements that will send temperatures below zero for some Wednesday morning. It won’t take a lot of moisture to “fluff up” 1″-3″ Tuesday morning. Couple that with gusty winds and falling temperatures and things will likely be messy on area roadways.
Looking ahead, a weak weather system will skirt the area to our north Thursday and could offer up a scattered snow shower, but it’s as we look towards next weekend that things become “more interesting.” Model specifics disagree at this time, but the overall pattern is one that’s conducive to lead to a fairly widespread interior winter storm threat. We’ll have to sort through the details as we go through the week. Stay tuned.

Highlights:
Rain To Snow Late Tonight…Most of today will be mild, but big changes will take place tonight as cold air whips around an area of low pressure that will deliver rain, especially the second half of the day. With the colder air moving in, rain will change to snow overnight and stick in spots. Timing the changeover is key in obviously determining snow amounts, but after looking over morning data, we feel as good as we can about our initial snowfall map issued last night. Additional fine tuning may be required later today, and bust potential remains high.
The second half of the weekend will feature morning snow along with strong and gusty north winds. It’ll be a harshly colder day (don’t let that high around freezing fool you, as that will take place around midnight).
Monday will dawn very cold, but dry, but the quiet times will be brief. Clouds will increase late day and snow will develop Monday night into Tuesday morning. Embedded heavy, quick-hitting, snow squalls will accompany arctic reinforcements Tuesday morning and set up a messy morning commute.
A third snow maker is possible Thursday and then our attention turns to next weekend for additional wintry “fun and games.” Get the idea now that we’re in a drastically different pattern when compared to December?
