WINTER STORM UPDATE; DANGEROUS WIND CHILLS

Winter storm still on track however the heaviest snow will stay in NW Ohio later this evening and overnight tonight. Temperatures have climbed into the lower 30s so much of northern Ohio will see some rain before a sharp transition to sleet then snow this evening and overnight as temperature drop.


CURRENT RADAR
I am a bit skeptical on the large snow amounts for northeastern Ohio. Areas from TIFFIN, NORWALK to SANDUSKY and west could see 6-10". East of that arbitrary line, I think the amounts will be much less...that is until lake effect kicks in Monday.

Here is the probability of specific locations receiving at least 4 inches of snow. Notice how the chances drop big time further east.


THE BIGGEST STORY WILL BE THE TEMPERATURES AND WIND CHILL LATE MONDAY AND TUESDAY. TEMPERATURES EARLY TUESDAY MORNING WILL BE BETWEEN -10 AND -20. THE LAST TIME WE HAD TEMPERATURES THAT COLD WAS IN JANUARY 1994.
