Little Snow

9PM Update Sunday
A round of snow showers will move into the area between 9pm and 1am.  Accumulations will generally stay under 1".  Isolated amounts 1" will be possible south of the river.

SATURDAY & SUNDAY SNOW...W/O THE %

We have another weak system moving through the area this weekend. Yet again we have 2 weather forecasting models saying opposite things. One says snow for tonight and the other says a miss. You know we don't use % in our forecast, but if you watch the weather channel or other media you'll probably hear that there is a 50% chance of snow. That's because 1 model says snow and 1 models says nothing. So they win either way. If it snows...you got the 50% chance of snow...If it doesn't you got the 50% of nothing. What's that really tell ya?

We think most of the heavy snows will be well to our north near Michigan, but we snow showers head in for Saturday Night. We expect a covering of snow by Sunday morning and additional snow showers on Sunday. Accumulations should hold under 1"


Not large accumulations by any means, but it's something
.


WATCH THE STORM COME IN
We expect the storm to form up near Michigan and expand southward through the area Saturday wears on.


"GROUND RADAR"
This radar shows what's actually reaching the ground. We'll monitory to see if we will be bitten by the dry air bug.
