Description
TODAY: Mostly to partly cloudy. High: 39. Winds: Light & Variable.
Snow, dangerously cold temps in Ohio later this week; here's what to expect -- https://www.10tv.com/article/weather/white-christmas-possible-in-ohio-this-year/530-971601a4-7219-4692-a332-20140ebcf4ef
All eyes are on the potential for an exceptionally inconvenient weather system expected to arrive later this week in central Ohio, bringing measurable snow and sub-zero wind chills.
THURSDAY: Rain/snow mix -- rain -- snow
This system will bring a brief rain/snow mix early Thursday morning before transitioning to all rain in the afternoon, with highs getting back to the low 40s.
During the evening hours, we will begin to see a changeover from rain to snow.
The specifics of that are to be determined but there will be a period of plain snow with accumulations overnight Thursday into Friday morning. We won't know much information until we get closer to the event because this will have huge implications on just how much snowfall we could end up with. If there were to be just a couple of hours of rain lingering into Thursday night, it would take a big bite out of the potential snowfall totals. It's is best we leave this topic vague for now.
FRIDAY: Temperatures plummet -- more snow -- strong winds
Temperatures will plummet so there will likely be poor road conditions Thursday night into Friday morning. This is the start of where some of our biggest impacts will come from this system. It will be very cold on Friday with highs barely making it into the 20s.
There will also likely be a secondary shot at some snow as this system gradually drifts north and east, which will allow for a couple more things of concern as we head into the holiday weekend. Not everyone will see snow out of this second round but we will all deal with some strong winds and more cold air ushering into the holiday weekend.
Most of the accumulating snow potential for central Ohio will end by the end of the day on Friday. As the snow ends, the winds will pick up with gusts up to 40 mph for most of the area.
We will have a high chance for wind chill values in the sub-zero department Friday night into the day on Saturday.
Snow on the ground and strong winds will lead to blowing and drifting snow while we may not see significant snowfall totals there will also be poor driving conditions going into Saturday.
SATURDAY & SUNDAY: Single-digit lows -- strong winds
Highs on Saturday will likely be in the teens and will barely feel warmer than zero degrees at times. Christmas Day looks extremely cold as well but not as windy with highs in the mid teens.
This will likely be one of the coldest Christmas Days we have had in years.
