WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 a.m. FRIDAY

Good Thursday morning! We will have a mix of sun & clouds today with a few flurries. Morning temps are dipping into the 20s with wind chills in the teens, so dress warm. We will warm to a high around 35 this afternoon with clouds returning this evening. A quick clipper system will race across Ohio late this evening, tonight, and early Friday. Snowfall totals by daybreak Friday will be around 1”-2” for most of Central Ohio along with a few pockets higher/lower. A few lingering flurries or lake-effect snow showers are possible in the afternoon, to the north, thanks to winds out of the northwest.

The weekend will start quiet then we get even more snow. Saturday morning the temps will be in the teens with wind chills in the single digits. Saturday will be mostly cloudy with a high around 25. Increasing clouds on Sunday with a morning low in the teens again then warming to a high around 27. Snow arrives late Sunday afternoon and evening. This will be caused by a more robust winter storm expected to form in the Southern Plains and then race our direction. The center of low pressure looks to pass by just south of Ohio before it heads out to the East Coast. This would put the wintry mix in far Southern Ohio and Kentucky. Central Ohio is still projected to stay all snow with the current projections, but we will need to keep an eye on the track because if the storm shifts north then the ice will be a factor. If we stay all snow, then several inches are likely and currently it does look like the heaviest bands of snow will move across Ohio. The snow continues into Monday and should be done by Monday afternoon/evening. High temperature around 28 on Monday.

Temps continue to get colder next week. Cloudy on Tuesday with a slim chance for flurries and a high around 26. Mostly cloudy Wednesday with a high around 21. Have a good one!
