Good Thursday evening everyone! Very cold night ahead as lows drop into the singles and teens.  Friday will be slightly milder than today, with highs recovering into the upper 20s and lower 30s. Another arctic front plows through Saturday bringing snow showers and an even bigger drop in temperatures. The timing has trended slower with this front...so it appears that southern portions of Indiana may briefly rise in the low-mid 30s around midday Saturday before things crash later in the day.  It is going to be just brutal out there Saturday evening with howling winds and dangerous wind chills. Also be aware that snow showers will likely make for some slick travel during the day Saturday as well. The good news is that the snow showers should exit by the late afternoon/evening time-frame. Sunday morning will be frigid. It appears everyone will be in the single digits, with some below zero readings possible in the northern portions of the state. The wind chill [feels-like temps factoring in the wind] no doubt will be well below zero. Most of the state won't even be able to get out of the teens for highs Sunday afternoon.


As we head into next week...a southern storm system has been on the charts for a while during this time-frame.  Trends right now keep this system way south of us... with just cold/dry conditions locally next week. The system really won't get sampled until this weekend. That is when we should get some good data for this system. So bottom line....the trend is for any wintry precip to stay well south of us, but things can and will change since we are several days out.
