6 more weeks of winter? Yes, no, and maybe. The wild pattern continues for the rest of February.

Yesterday it was 65 in Cincinnati, this morning it is 20. The promised return to winter is dominating the upper midwest, Great Lakes, and west as shown on this map. Winter storm warnings are up for the western mountains for a continual parade of winter storms while the blue shades in the upper midwest are wind chill advisories and warnings. The green in the Ohio valley is residual flooding concerns.

The 7 day liquid precipitation outlook shows storminess out west with an additional 10+ feet of snow possible in the Sierra Nevadas and more storminess in the southeast. Cincinnati will have a couple really cold, wintry days followed by several days of unsettled weather and precipitation. While no big snow is currently forecast, some accumulation cannot be ruled out from Sunday into next week.

The 6-10 day outlook shows real winter continuing in the northwest half of the country, spring-like weather in the southeast, and Cincinnati on the battleground border.

The battle between winter and spring will produce abundant storminess and precipitation where the two seasons meet. This means there is no end in sight to the precipitation train from the west coast into the Ohio valley and into New England. Precipitation type will depend on exactly where that battle line sits when any given storm goes through.

So, keep the snow shovel handy and the sump pump engaged. The wild February ride continues.
