How cold do we get tonight with the added snow cover. Looks like the winds may stay up somewhat and not sure we clear out completely but if we get that period 2 hours before sunrise where the winds die down and its clear getting in that 2-4 degree range is possible.

5 at a min. esp with snow cover. With clear skies and calm winds zero is possible, if we can get the right conditions. COLD either way. Coldest morning so far for the winter is 5 at CVG and my hood from the other morning. We'll make a run at it.

Next band moving in Tim, get ready! Should come down nicely for a short time right as it's getting light. Perfect!
I am ready Les and after that band moves through I will go out and shovel. I love that phrase go out and shovel.
A wonderful AFD for this morning's snow and possible squalls this afternoon! Lots to track for just today guys!
Light snow continues to translate ENE through the southern half
or so of the ILN FA, with fairly good banding evolving from
Clermont Co east through Hocking Co as of this writing. Although
snow accumulation reports have been fairly sparse thus far, do
think that most spots from SW OH and N KY through south-central
OH will end up with between 0.5 and 1.5 inches of total
snowfall, with isolated higher amounts from Clermont through
Hocking counties.
The back edge of the snow will work east through these areas
through the predawn hours, with snow lingering past 12z for
parts of south-central OH/NE KY. In fact, light snow may
continues in these areas until 14z or so before tapering off to
just a few flurries.
At this juncture, with the expectation for /most/ (but not all)
areas to remain below 2" of snow, have decided to hold off on an
advisory for now. Roads certainly may be snow-covered in a few
spots and untreated surfaces may be slick, but current radar
trends and estimations thus far point to /most/ areas receiving
less than 2."
Attention for the daytime period will shift quickly to a digging
midlevel trof axis migrating SE through the OH Vly by late
morning into the afternoon. This digging/sharpening trof will
help cool temps aloft and create some LL instby and steepening
lapse rates during this time, with still ample
saturation/moisture availability within the DGZ. Some of the hi-
res data is suggesting the potential for one or more
concentrated areas of SN shower activity tracking SE through IN
and into parts of central/northern KY for this afternoon,
potentially grazing the far SW stretches of the ILN FA. Most of
this heavier SN shower activity should stay off /just/ to the SW
of the local area, but suppose it cannot be ruled out completely
from Switzerland IN through Owen Co KY. Where this activity
does develop, it may be somewhat squally/convective in nature,
with abrupt and significant VSBY reductions accompanied by brief
heavier snow rates. With most of this remaining outside the
local area, feel that more aggressive messaging regarding the
potential hazards the activity may bring with it is not warranted
at this time for the immediate local area.
Colder air will filter into the ILN FA through the daytime
period, with daytime highs ranging from the teens in WC OH to
the mid 20s south of the OH Rvr.

And WTH Trev, as soon as you give the OK for us poor snow hunters to have our fun , we all the sudden see results and the future turns more snowy. Can you give the OK sooner next year
