Cvg now reporting 1” depth as of 1pm and 36 degrees

With ILN issuing 2 WWAs for the region earlier in the week for snow showers that actually affected a very small percentage of the region, they pretty much have to issue one for tomorrow, since vigorous snow showers will probably affect a higher percentage than the previous two advisories and with higher winds to boot

That's awesome for you guys in the southeast. I wouldn't be surprised, in my opinion, to see some 3-4 inch amounts in Brown and Adams counties. Especially the southern half of those counties. Especially when factoring in the snow showers and squalls that will develop after the synoptic snows.

Good Afternoon and one last post before football kicks off. No changes at all and should be fun to see how this plays out. Ratios may start out 12-1 but should go quickly up to 20-1 and that is why we can see some accumulation with this system. Fun to see where the snow squalls set up on Sunday and it will be hard to predict to far in advance but I could see a few snow squall warnings happen and with these you can get a quick inch in 1/2 hour and the roads become icy and visibility during the squall can be quite low. Get the cold established and then we can work on the extended forecast

I assume the inevitable Cold Weather Warning is being held off while there is an Advisory in place?

Edit - Just read this in forecast discussion:

More data for the warning/advisory decision is needed in
the upcoming model runs. Either way, the key message is very
cold conditions are on the way.

Good evening all! No changes from me. Up to an inch for Cincy and 1-2"+ in the SE zones. We'll see how it goes! I'm home watching football too. Go Houston and of course My Lions!!!

A difficult dilemma concerning the NFL playoffs. I certainly want Kansas City to lose and I do want them to lose bad and I do want it to hurt however, I think the only team that really has a legitimate chance is Baltimore. I don’t think Buffalo has the horses to beat Kansas City. Thus the dilemma having to root for Baltimore.
