Update
March 4th, 2013 at 9:18 pm by Chad Evans under Chad's WLFI Weather Blog
Low-level jet is increasing & nosing into mid-Mississippi to Lower Ohio Valleys with blossoming scattered showers. Rain, freezing rain & sleet showers will increase in our area overnight & continue into tomorrow. Some minor ice accumulations are possible. Still looks like 0.1″ accumulation may be reached north of U.S. 24 with less than 0.1″ elsewhere.
On-going snowfall totals still look good. These amounts would accumulate by early, early Wednesday morning. Strong winds gusts of up to 43 mph in places in the viewing area will accompany the highest snowfall rates Tuesday night. Winds will be sustained at 20-25 mph for a while during the highest rates. Worst of the conditions still look to be 10 p.m.-2 a.m. per latest analysis with a changeover to all snow in the ENTIRE viewing area by 5 p.m. tomorrow.
I will have another update based on the latest data at 11:30 p.m.
Wait and see what the GFS says around 1030….
Chad any timeline graph? You are awesome st those. Thx Jim
Getting a rain snow mix right now.
Is Tues. morning commute probably okay? Coming home might be iffy though I imagine. The kids will probably make it to school & then I hope they don’t get stuck on way home. Thanks.
Kids probably okay tomorrow. I don’t think the real heavy stuff is gonna start until later afternoon i think…
Joey your right ! Duane C. The Stoogies are here. With our new motto.
Decent returns showing up on radar around C-Ville.
Why does Chad have LAF at only 3″, everyone else is saying 6″-9″
If it starts in the afternoon the kids will be coming home in a mess! I hope the schools do the right thing !
By the way, we have tiny little snowflakes falling down here in Crawfordsville.
I keep seeing 5-8 for laf. I am not sure if this is correct. Kind of goin off Ron’s comment of 3 in. But I wouldn’t be surprised if w only get 3 or 4. Or even less
It’s gonna be a now-cast storm I guess.
hammertime!!!! FTSH.
Fox 59 just said 6.8″ for Lafayette? Why such difference Chad or anybody else that wants to answer ? Is it that dry slot in Texas? Please don’t let this stooge down
Hay everyone I made it back on here. NWS calling for 6 in. Lets hope so. All snow equipment ready for snow wa hooo bring on the snow. Monticello temp 32.
