Month: February 2010

If you’re thinking we’ve had a lot of snow this month, you’re right.  This is already the tenth snowiest February on record in Cincinnati, Dayton, and Columbus.  Details here.

A weak weather system could bring some flurries or light snow Saturday, then a somewhat stronger system will bring heavier snow late Sunday into Monday.  However, the track of the Monday system is still in doubt.  This storm could skirt the area to the south.

Expect little melting of the snow this week over the eastern part of the country.  Click here for details. 

Snow is possible again Sunday but there is still uncertainty with that system.

Expect a major winter storm over the next two days in Cincinnati.  Expect greater impacts from this storm than the last:

• It now looks like accumulations will be higher than first thought, 4 to 8 inches from southeast to northwest across the metro area. 
• If there is a changeover to rain or a mix, it will be short-lived and generally along and southeast of I-71. 
• Tuesday night into Wednesday, high winds with gusts to 40 mph will whip the snow into a frenzy, combined with rapidly falling temperatures. 
• Pavement temperatures are much colder than with the last system. 

As always, adjustments in later forecasts could change things a bit, but this one looks big.
