1-7-18 Update On Possible Ice Storm Sun Evening. Details Here. M.
Synopsis: We are watching a disturbance that looks to bring precip into the area starting Sunday around 10pm or so. Latest models this morning have trended on the up and up with more moisture while still maintaining a profile favorable for freezing rain esp across central IND. A low level jet will start pumping in moisture and also increase surface winds Sunday night. SW winds of 15 gusting to 40MPH are on the table in the pre-dawn hours of Monday. Pending ICE accum this could mean power outages. Given the fact we have been so cold will play a significant role in this setup as I explain more of what I mean by this in the video. Bottom line Monday AM will be a train wreck commute wise if current thinking verifies. I would look for headlines from the NWS by this afternoon.
Video this AM is 7 mins.
Storm works in 10pm-10am Mon.
