Evening Showers…A weak cold front will press through central IN tonight.  Moisture return isn’t impressive with this system, but light showers will scoot through the area this evening.  Rainfall amounts won’t add up to much.

A few flurries may fly Tuesday morning as cold air moves back into the area.  Temperatures during the day time Tuesday will be below freezing for the most part after a predawn high.

Forecast models still disagree with the overall track of a clipper system Thursday.  The GFS and European models don’t suggest we deal with any snow, whatsoever.  Meanwhile, the Canadian model remains consistent on Thursday snow showers.  Either way, this shouldn’t be a big deal.  We’ll keep an eye on things.

The weekend will shift unseasonably mild as we get into a strong SW flow.  We’ll eye a developing strong storm across the Plains early next week…

Thaw Will Be Brief; Arctic Hammer Set To Drop…

Screen Shot 2016-01-14 at 7.50.47 AMHighlights:

  • Brief thaw
  • Coldest air of the season awaits
  • Snow squalls accompany the arctic air

Enjoy Today; New Polar Plunge Coming…While we wait on the next severe blast of cold air, enough SW air flow will help boost temperatures to above normal levels today and Friday.  We’ll introduce a few showers into the Friday forecast, so today is the “pick of the week!”  Find a way to enjoy it!

What at one time looked like a significant storm system Friday into Saturday is now anything but.  A very weak area of low pressure will provide showers Friday before transitioning to snow flurries as precipitation ends.  Precipitation amounts will be light with this system.

Colder air begins to return tomorrow night and Saturday, but it’s Saturday night and Sunday that the next arctic invasion will get underway.  By now you know the deal- we’ll also contend with snow showers and embedded heavier squalls, along with very gusty winds.

A frigid opening to next week will take place before we eye our next snow maker the middle of next week.

Storm Brewing, But Questions Abound…

In the transition period from the “step down” cold pattern that we’re in now and the more sustained cold that looms for the second half of the month, we’re going…
