Winter Storm #Euclid still has some uncertainty as for where it will be heading. At this time, Christmas Day is looking to be mostly cloudy with highs from the mid-30s to the lower 40s across Illiana and the Tri-State. What will be happening next is what I am watching. The track from the GFS and EURO puts the central pressure, or main part of this storm, near Louisiana and Mississippi at 0z Wednesday, or 6PM CST Christmas. The lost will then start heading towards the northeast and be in Central Tennessee by 12z, or 6AM CST Wednesday, Central Kentucky at 18z, or Noon CST, and being heading towards the northeast by 0z Thursday, or 6PM CST Wednesday. Below is a list of all watches out as of 10PM EST tonight and a full report on what may just be happening.
Tri-State
Blizzard Watch for Saline, Gallatin, Union, Wabash, Posey, Spencer, Webster, Vanderburgh, Edwards, Hamilton, Wayne, Pike, White, Henderson, Warrick until Noon CST Wednesday; Winter Storm Watch for Richland, Lawrence, Clay until 6PM CST Wednesday; Winter Storm Watch for Knox, Daviess, Martin until 7PM EST Wednesday; Winter Storm Watch for Dubois until 7PM EST Wednesday.
The Tri-State is looking to get the worst and the most headaches of this storm. This is looking to start out as a rain or rain/snow mix late Christmas Day. This will turn into an all snow event for one half of the Tri-State, while the other will see either rain or a rain/snow mix. If you are under the Blizzard Watch, you will be seeing snow. If you are under a Winter Storm Watch, either snow or rain/snow mix for you. If you are not under any watch, you will see an all rain event. If you are living east and south of a line drawn from Evansville down to Paducah, you will be right on the rain/snow mix. How much snow will see? I have had to update that. I think we will see anywhere from 6-12” with some areas maybe reporting over 13”. Along with the snow, you might hear thunder. Yes, the conditions are just right for you to hear thunder in this storm.
Illiana
Winter Storm Watch for Sullivan, Boone, Montgomery, Vermillion, Warren, Fountain, Parke, Vigo, Tippecanoe, Monroe, Clay, Owen, Greene, Putnam until 7PM EST Wednesday; Vermilion, Champaign, Douglas, Crawford, Edgar, Clark, Effingham, Jasper, Coles, Cumberland until 6PM CST Wednesday.
Not that much for me to go over for Illiana. This will be an all snow event. Snow should start to fall just before Midnight on Christmas Night and keep on snowing into Wednesday before ending around sunset. Snow totals will range from 5-9” with 10-12” in isolated locations. Most of the heaviest snow should fall just north of I-70.
For everyone
Winds will be gusting 30+MPH on Wednesday, causing blowing and drifting snow and visibility to drop below 1/2mile at times. As it has been said before, if you do not have to travel, do not. Snow crews and emergency personal will already be busy and the last thing they want is someone on the roads who does not need to be on them. I plan on having updates during Christmas Day and Wednesday.
Merry Christmas and God Bless.

One more night and day of nice weather before the rain
and colder air moves in. The front will move in during the evening hours and
will start to push our temps down. Normally cloud cover and rain overnight
would normally push our temps down a little bit, but this time the winds will
be out of the north and coming in at 25-30mph. Rain still staying for Friday
and it will be colder with highs most likely getting into the lower 50s. Friday
Night, front will move on out and rain should start to end. However, temps will
be cold into the mid-30s. Chance of rain for Saturday morning, but clouds will
then start to decrease. Sunday thru Wednesday looking nice with mostly sunny to
sunny skies and temps in the lower 50s. Overnight lows for Saturday, Sunday,
Monday, and Tuesday will be in the lower 30s. If we have enough moisture
around, we might see a snow flurry or two around. Putting in a chance of rain
late for Wednesday evening, Halloween, so the kids are going to have to dress
warm and be ready in case it does rain.
