Snow update (Thursday, 8:30am)

(Map courtesy of  http://rapidrefresh.noaa.gov)
We are still on track for snow overnight tonight. The colder air will move in and change the rain to snow probably close to midnight. I'm still thinking 2-4 inches of wet snow by daybreak with another 3-5 during the day tomorrow.

The map at left is from the National Weather Service Rapid Refresh Model and shows the tongue of snow dipping into NE Ohio. You can look at that and see why the snow forecast is so uncertain. There will be a lot of variation in snow depths within a 40 mile area north to south and east to west. This is probably going to one of those storms where "you get what you get" and your friends 15 miles away will have something totally different.
