A little snow for central Indiana and Bloomington over the Christmas weekend.

"Little" is the keyword here, especially south of I-70. I say that because I can see that there are various snow maps out there saying that we could get up to 3-5 inches of snow. That's just exaggerated. Had we been below freezing for the last 48 hours then it could be a possibility but it's just not likely given how warm the ground temperature is. That doesn't mean we wont see any accumulation though. The National Weather Service has just issued a Special Weather Statement that include Monroe County.
