For the rest of January, we are watching Sun / Mon still. At this time, It's a very low chance we see snow. I won't remove it from the table yet, but the chances aren't great right now. Then, we'll need to see how long it takes the energy to roll out of the SW. This happens by the end of this month / early Feb time frame. Is there any cold air left by then for some snow or it is a rain event? Too early to know this far out. Then we're into our new monthly thread by then anyway.

11 now at CVG... it doesn't look like we'll reach those lower 20s today IMO.

18Z GFS has completely folded to the foreign models now for Sunday / Monday. That one now looks to be on life support.

Saw a bald eagle on the drive home flying parallel to my vehicle. There was a dead deer in the field about 50 feet off the road he was interested in
