Monday/Mid Afternoon

WEATHER CODE: YELLOW ***Snow showers may cause slick spots tonight across Kentuckiana***



POST EDITED: Have now included YELLOW alert tonight due to increasing snow showers over Kentucky. Southern Indiana has been dry slotted, and unless it feels in their, most of it will be across Northern Indiana and Kentucky. PLEASE DRIVE SAFELY DUE TO SOME SLICK SPOTS DEVELOPING LATER TONIGHT ACROSS KENTUCKIANA!

Forecast will be focusing on snow chances throughout the rest of this week into next week...

Well Kentuckiana missed out on the big snows, and some areas didn't even see a dusting. We will still see a few snow flurries and snow showers continuing through tonight.

One difference that is very obvious today is the colder weather. Temperatures have been steady all day in the lower 30's and they will slowly drop off through the middle 20's tonight!

Next system to impact the area will be Wednesday into Thursday. I have been looking at various computer models (GFS, NAM, ECMWF, EURO) and they all indicate rain changing to snow. Temperatures should be warm enough for rain Wednesday and most of Wednesday night. By the time the precip changes over to snow, most of the precipitation should be gone, but nonetheless we will probably see some accumulation on grassy areas. If anything does change, which is very possible, we will update the latest tomorrow...

Were in for a very active period, and yet another storm system will impact the region next Monday/Tuesday

Here is the latest GFS for next Tuesday...



Right now looks like another rain to snow event, but this one excites me a little more than the Wednesday/Thursday system. We'll update this storm as well throughout the week! STAY TUNED!

Patrick, what do you make of John Belski`s "buddy" Marcus Barnes forecasting another "major winter storm". I think this Marcus Barnes is off his rocker personally. Everything is either major or a blizzard with him!
