my updated forecast
Posted: Mon Feb 11, 2008 2:25 am
This is still on track to be a major event for our area.
Precipitation will develop Monday night. I expect the preciptation to start as all snow along and north of a Chillicothe to Marietta line. South of this line there will be a mixture of snow, sleet and freezing rain. Significant accumulations are possible through early Tuesday morning.
On Tuesday. Enough warm air will move into to quickly change the precipitation to rain around Gallipolis and Portsmouth. Further north there can be a period of heavy freezing rain, snow or sleet with significant snow and ice accumulations. The most significant ice accumulations are expected along and just north of the Chillicothe to Athens and Marietta line. Heavy snow accumulations along and north of I-70.
