Updated (2 articles)
Tuesday Snow Band Triggers Advisory Across Southern Ohio Flurries moved through central Ohio on Monday, and a narrow band of light‑to‑moderate snow is forecast for areas near and south of Interstate 70 late Tuesday morning into the afternoon, prompting a Winter Weather Advisory for Chillicothe, Piketon, Jackson and Athens with expected accumulations of 1‑3 inches [1].
Midweek Temperatures Drop Into the 20s After the Tuesday snowfall clears, high temperatures are projected to fall into the 20 °F range on Wednesday and Thursday as a cold air mass follows the first system [1].
Friday System Brings Broader Light Snow A second system on Friday is expected to produce a wider but lighter snow event across central Ohio, with most locations seeing only a dusting or up to two inches of accumulation, offering a more widespread impact than Tuesday’s narrow band [1].
Weekend Brings Subzero Wind Chills After Snow As Friday’s snow clears, an even colder air mass will move in for Saturday and Sunday, generating subzero wind‑chill values during the morning hours and prompting additional advisories for residents [1].
Early Next Week Forecasts Temperatures Above Freezing Computer models indicate a warming trend early the following week, with possible daytime highs reaching the 40 °F range by the end of that week, providing a brief reprieve from the subfreezing conditions [1].
