Sitting at the Runcible Spoon with Irish fiddle music in the background. Current temperature is 16 F. Temperatures will rise very, very, very, slowly over night as the southern storm approaches. 18 degrees by 7:00am on Wednesday morning. My snow forecast is about the same; 2 inches of snow likely in Bloomington and 4-5 in the Evansville area.

Next up: All eyes turn to the Thursday-Friday system 1/21 -1/22 which is still highly uncertain at this time. Remember the rule: Three days can be forecasted with accuracy. We should know more about Friday's storm on tomorrow (which will be Wednesday). Right now the models have shown everything from heavy snow to sunshine and heavy snow far south of here. Beyond three days out, uncertainty rises and anything is possible. Even the NWS right now has snow chance at 50% so that is a very good indicator to remember the rule. Beware of graphics and pictures depicting the snowpocalypse.
