Colder air is now spilling across the state! Flurries are likely to redevelop through late morning, and roads should be watched for some black ice, as temperatures are now in the upper 20s.
This afternoon will be blustery with some sunshine peeking in at times, as highs hold in the upper 20s and winds gust to 30 mph.
Tonight skies clear and a much colder start is expected by Saturday morning.
Sunday’s storm is now about 48 hours away and still much to analyze on track, snow amounts and the wintry mix component (warm layer intrusion). The newest update has its arrival time now into Indianapolis around 11 a.m., not the previously thought hour of 7 a.m. on Sunday. Model consistencies remain for our most trusted models, while others are all over the place on snow amounts.
Bottom line: snow is headed in and we feel some areas will see up to 6″ of snow or more! For now, this is the current thinking in terms of snowfall totals. And I caution, this will change given we are nearly two days out and things will change on track, amounts of snow and how that warm layer impacts some locations.
