Snow Potential

Snow accumulations for the most part will be below 1". I believe the Attica area will see between .1"-.5" of snow with an isolated 1" amount possible. Places in southern Indiana have a better shot at seeing 1" of snow.  For the people going to school, watch out for slick spots. Chance for a 2 hr. delay is between 20% and 30%.

Wednesday Forecast: Snow showers/flurries will be around for the morning commute, again watch for slick spots. Temps will hover around 30 in the morning with winds from the NW at 8-13mph and gusting up to 20mph. Temps will rise in the afternoon into the upper 30s. This will allow for the melting of the morning snow. All the snow should be melted by mid afternoon. Clouds will gradually exit overnight. This will allow the temperature to fall in a hurry. Temps will fall into the mid 20s by midnight and the low 20s-upper 10s by Thursday morning.

When will we see another snow maker?

It looks like we will see a decent storm system move in around Valentine's Day. A couple of inches of snow are possible with this storm, but it is still too early to tell at this time. A weaker storm system will move through Friday-Saturday. Accumulations look to be less than 1" at this time. I will update as more model data rolls in.
