Early Look: Light Snow Possible Late Tuesday Night

Brought to you by Cedar Point Federal Credit Union

Our region is still feeling the effects of last weekend’s winter storm and the lingering cold. However, I’m monitoring our next snow threat!

I’m keeping an eye on a weak clipper system that looks to race across the region late Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning. This will not be a strong or moisture-rich system. However, current guidance suggests it may dig far enough south to bring a period of light snow to much of the area. With limited moisture available, any precipitation that falls would be snow, and ice is not a concern with this setup.

The main forecast question at this stage is the track. A subtle shift north or south will determine where the highest snow chances set up and how far the 32° line pushes south. Even so, this is shaping up as a low-impact event, with snowfall generally capped at an inch or two, at most.

While totals will be light, even a coating to an inch could be enough to create minor travel issues, especially for the Wednesday morning commute. This is something worth monitoring over the next couple of days as confidence in placement improves.
