Ohio Weather Disscusion

Well, in terms of flooding and severe weather nothing changes from my thoughts yesterday. There will be a severe weather outbreak mainly in the south, with tornadoes and high winds being the biggest threats, but I do not think this will be an extremely large outbreak in which the SPC puts out a high risk. I still think there will be flooding problems from Texas through the lower Great Lakes, and nuisance flooding all the way into New England. Wednesday afternoon/night we will transition to snow across Ohio. Right now I think most of Ohio will see 1-2" of snow, and the Snow Belt will see 3-5". Those are up from earlier because the models are indicating some deformation snows across Ohio Wednesday evening. Right now I am a bit skeptical about it, so I am sticking to the lower accumulations. But, if things change I may need to issue a snow map for this tomorrow or Wednesday. Thursday there will be lingering lake effect snow showers in the Snow Belt, but accumulations will be minimal. Friday and Saturday will be tranquil. Sunday and Monday there is still a chance of major snow, but today all the models have gone south with the storm and leaving us mainly dry, but of coarse things could change and I will continue to monitor the situation the rest of this week.
