Winter Weather Advisory in Effect at 7pm Friday

Winter Weather Advisory in Effect at 7pm Friday
DEM Blogger
January 15, 2021

Updated: Friday, Jan. 15, 5:30pm – Scattered snow showers will continue across southern Indiana and central Kentucky through this evening. A brief heavier snow shower may rapidly reduce visibility, so use caution if traveling this evening. Air and road temperatures remain well above freezing. While these temperatures mean travel impacts are currently unlikely, temperatures are expected to drop after sunset. More intense snow showers or a snow squall could quickly drop temperatures and produce gusty winds over 30 mph. Heavier snow showers later this evening are more likely to produce near zero visibility and deteriorating road conditions.

If traveling this evening, be alert for the potential for slick roads and rapidly changing visibilities. The worst impacts and weather will be localized in nature.

Avoid travel if possible tonight and early tomorrow morning.


Updated: Friday, Jan. 15 – 1:30pm – Winter Weather Advisory This Evening Into Saturday Morning.

Locally intense snow showers are possible this evening, with reduced visibilities and quick accumulation on roadways. Intermittent snow showers will continue overnight into Saturday morning, and could result in continued slick conditions, especially on untreated roads.

Accumulations up to 1 inch are expected in many locations and could cause some slick spots on untreated roadways. Isolated amounts up to 2 inches can’t be ruled out for spots that see the most intense and repeated snow showers.

 


A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect this evening at 9pm into Saturday morning.

Scattered to numerous snow showers are expected later this evening, lasting through the overnight, and tapering Saturday morning.

Light accumulations between a half inch and 1 inch are expected in many locations and could cause some slick spots on untreated roadways. Isolated instances of amounts up to 2 inches can’t be ruled out for spots that see the most intense and repeated snow showers.

Here’s the full forecast for the weekend and early next week.
