The National Weather Service in Cleveland has issued a WINTER STORM WATCH and a FLOOD WATCH for our area.
We’ll start with the WINTER STORM WATCH. The Watch goes into effect late tonight through Wednesday morning. Rain will develop this afternoon then change to freezing rain after midnight. Snow and sleet is forecasted for Tuesday morning with a small break during the day but it will return Tuesday night.
A significant glaze of ice is possible if temperatures stay below freezing tonight into Tuesday night.
Here is Haas’ favorite line from forecasters. The exact track of the storm system is still uncertain and will determine the temperatures and amount of precipitation.
The FLOOD WATCH is in effect for us beginning at 4 P.M. this afternoon through late Tuesday night. Rain is expected to develop from west to east late this afternoon and evening just ahead of a cold front. Once the temperatures cool overnight to near freezing the rain will change to snow, sleet or freezing rain in the extreme north with freezing rain in most other locations.
On Tuesday a combination of freezing rain and rain will occur over the southern two thirds of the area with some sleet and freezing rain along the lakeshore.
The ground is nearly saturated from recent rain and melting snow – combine that with the expected rain may be heavy enough to produce flooding. It is believed that if the heavy rain occurs the flooding, in some spots, could be significant.
THE NEXT 24 HOURS - Updated 1:00 A.M. Tuesday
Tuesday: Periods of snow, freezing rain and sleet, becoming all freezing rain after 1pm. High near 31. Blustery, with a northeast wind between 13 and 22 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow and sleet accumulation of around an inch possible.
