Tracking several winter storms that will impact Ohio this week ...Middle East

Central Ohio Weather and Radar

COLUMBUS (WCMH) -- The second week of February is shaping up to be an active period for weather systems that will impact wide swaths of the nation east of the Rockies.

The first in a series of cross-country storms will sweep eastward early in the week, accompanied by locally heavy rain and thunderstorms across the South, and snow or a wintry mix from the Tennessee and Ohio valleys to the Mid-Atlantic Coast.

The most likely area in Ohio to receive moderate snowfall will be across the southern counties, closer to the path of a wave of low pressure.

Snow will arrive after daybreak in southern Ohio on Tuesday and slowly spread northward during the afternoon, limited by high pressure to the northwest of the region, and a flow of dry air that will create a sharp cutoff a little northwest of the I-71 corridor.

The first wave of snow Tuesday afternoon will reach U.S. 22 around noontime and gradually push northward to near the I-70 corridor in the evening, creating some potentially slick conditions on untreated surfaces.

The back edge of light accumulating snow will be near the Columbus area around midnight, before shifting east.

Preliminary likely snow accumulations, based on the current track that will be monitored closely during the next 24 to 36 hours, favor an inch or less along the I-71 corridor, dropping off sharply to nothing a little farther northwest. In the southeastern counties, the snowfall will most likely be in the range of 2 to 5 inches.

A break between weather systems will amount to little more than 12 hours, as another system racing northeastward will travel from the Tennessee Valley across eastern Ohio Wednesday night.

A more westerly path for the second storm will favor a brief wintry mix Wednesday evening changing to rain, as milder air is drawn northward. A narrow band of heavy snow, approaching 4 inches, could accumulate across parts of northwestern Ohio and northern Indiana.

A third disturbance of Pacific origin will arrive next Saturday, but the details are too far out to make any prediction, beyond a likely wintry mix of snow and rain, depending on the exact path of the storm.
