Mild Day; Scattered Showers…Today is going to be the mildest day of the month by far.  As we type this, we’re more than 20 degrees above where we should be at this time of day.  Almost balmy out!  While scattered showers will be possible through the day, steadier and heavier rains will hold off until Christmas Eve morning (there will be many dry hours today).

Merry Christmas; Rain Switching To Snow Before Ending…We still forecast a rainy Christmas Eve, but as colder air moves in, rain will end as snow showers/ flurries Christmas Eve night.  This doesn’t appear to be a big deal from an accumulation perspective, but we’ll keep a close eye on it.

We love snow as much (if not more) than any other snow lover and would love a white Christmas, but let’s remember the reason for the season and put things into perspective.  In all actuality, a white Christmas doesn’t matter in the least ;-).  We’ll enjoy a couple of drier and milder days Christmas and for the big shopping day Friday!

Eyeing The Weekend…A winter threat remains on the table for the upcoming weekend into early next week, but we’ll have to fine tune timing and precise track in the days ahead.  Let’s get through the Christmas Eve storm first.

Regardless, the pattern looks very cold to welcome in 2015…

Shame, Shame, Shame; Humble Pie Never Tastes Good…

Shame, shame, shame…That’s all I can say when we deal with a blown opportunity for snow with a surface low that tracks in an ideal position for the white stuff,…

Monday Morning Rambles…

Highlights:

  • Early Week Rain Maker
  • Keeping An Eye On Mid Week
  • Weekend Winter Storm For Some

Early Week Storm System…An area of low pressure will scoot though the Ohio Valley Monday into Tuesday delivering showers to the region. We forecast rain to arrive late morning to early afternoon Monday across central Indiana. We’re not expecting heavy rain, but plan on taking the rain gear with you as you leave for work and/ or school.  Colder air will filter into the state Tuesday afternoon setting up a cold mid week period.

Some forecast models have hinted at the threat of light wintry precipitation Wednesday into Thursday, but for now we’re keeping this out of our official forecast and instead going with a mostly cloudy, but dry mid week period.

Developing Weekend Winter Storm…All eyes will focus on a significant weekend winter storm event.  Details on track are still up for debate with this being in the mid range period and we’ll keep close tabs as we move forward through the week.  As of now we forecast increasing clouds through the day Friday with light snow developing late Friday night and continuing into Saturday.  Snowfall totals will obviously depend on the track of the low and we’re still a few days away from being able to provide any sort of specific accumulation ideas.  Guidance right now ranges from a “plowable” event to one that misses us to the south and east.  Stay tuned.

The weather pattern continues to look cold and active in the days leading up to, and through, the Christmas and New Year’s period.  Buckle up for a fun ride…
