SNOW SHOWERS LINGER IN WAKE OF HEAVY SNOW

THE BIGGEST SNOW OF THE SEASON HITS CENTRAL INDIANA BURYING SOUTHERN COUNTIES IN 7 TO 10 INCHES OF SNOW

 

 Snow showers and brisk winds will continue to create hazardous travel across much of central Indiana through the Tuesday morning commute.  Overnight snowfall should remain light but local accumulations of up  to one inch remains possible.  A brisk northwest wind will also create blowing and drifting snow especially away from the city.  Authorities across many central Indiana counties urge extreme caution when traveling early Wednesday.

 

SNOWFALL TOTALS

South central Indiana takes the brunt of the snow.  The NWS Indianapolis reports 6.1" of snow through 7PM Monday.  Snowfall amounts drop off quickly north of Indianapolis, heaviest snow fell to the south.  The epicenter of this snow is across southern Morgan - Johnson - Monroe - Bartholomew and extended into Jennings Counties. 

Here is a picture from former Columbus East High School Principal Gary Goshorn in Brown County. 

 

Thanks Gary - Good luck moving out the 8 inches of snow!

Snowfall reports ranged from 5 inches on the city's south side to 3 inches north side.  North of Indianapolis only 1" of snow reported in Frankfort.

LONG RANGE

Snow showers are likely Tuesday - with lingering flurries Wednesday.  The next system may come together late Friday into Saturday morning.  This is early but the European and Japanese Long Range models are indicating several inches of snow possible by Saturday afternoon.  Stay tuned
