Significant Winter Storm: After a quiet day it looks like anything but quiet tonight. A winter storm bringing ice and snow is on the way. This one is a little complicated though.
Here is the breakdown right now. There is an Ice Storm Warning from Fort Wayne and to the south and a Winter Storm Warning north of Fort Wayne. It looks like the hours between 10pm tonight and 9am tomorrow morning will be touch and go especially south of Fort Wayne. Temperatures are going to be the biggest problem. Temperatures will get above freezing by about mid morning tomorrow, but before that is when areas from Fort Wayne south could see ice accumulation.
North of Fort Wayne: North of Fort Wayne could see some ice accumulation but more than likely the closer you get to the border of Michigan the more the ice will turn to snow. Around Steuben county we could see 3 to 4 inches of snow before morning. Usually the heaviest snow is just north of the ice storm. This situation will evolve over night and I'll try to blog out the storm for you.
The Weekend: Another winter storm will head our way. This one is coming from the south but will essentially open up that gateway to the Arctic Circle again.
Here is a look at the storm tomorrow afternoon. It is sitting across Texas. This storm will bring moisture our way on Sunday. One thing I'm not crazy about is the track of this low. It looks too far north to bring heavy snow to our area. However, it could bring some snow in front of the system, (what I like to call on-slaught snow). It is also going to bring very cold temperatures into Monday.
A White Christmas? Yes Virginia Santa is going to bring a white Christmas.
Here is Monday, ouch this is cold we'll be lucky to see temperatures in the teens this day and we could go sub zero for the first time as well.
Here is Christmas eve morning, it looks like another southern system will bring some light snow. Once again, I'm not thrilled with the track for heavy snow, but I'm sure will see some fresh snow on the ground.
