Note to Subscribers: As a refresher, the term "Winter Weather Advisory" as used below is defined as follows for most Southern Ohio and adjacent WV Counties: "Any combination of accumulations of snow, freezing rain, freezing drizzle or sleet that will cause significant inconvenience and moderately dangerous conditions. An advisory is also issued when visibilities from blowing snow or a combination of snow and blowing snow will be reduced to one-quarter mile or less. An advisory is issued when snow is expected to accumulate two to three inches in 12 hours in Southern Ohio." For additional terms and info: http://weathersafety.ohio.gov/ HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV 441 AM EST THU DEC 2 2010 A FAST MOVING CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL STREAK THROUGH ON SATURDAY AND SATURDAY EVENING...AND WILL LIKELY PRODUCE A BAND OF ACCUMULATING SNOW. WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES SEEM LIKELY FOR SOME COUNTIES. THERE IS AN OUTSIDE CHANGE...ESPECIALLY OVER THE SOUTHERN MOUNTAINS OF WEST VIRGINIA THAT THE TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATION COULD REACH MINIMUM WATCH/WARNING CRITERIA. A COLD AND SNOW SHOWERY PATTERN SEEMS LIKELY FOR SUNDAY INTO TUESDAY. HOWEVER...AT THIS DISTANCE IN TIME...MOST COUNTIES SHOULD SEE ACCUMULATIONS LESS THAN ADVISORY CRITERIA. ______________________________________ TABULAR FORECAST FOR SOUTHEAST OHIO NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV 1037 AM EST THU DEC 2 2010 ROWS INCLUDE...

MAINLY FLURRIES OR LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS ARE FORECAST LATE TODAY INTO FRIDAY MORNING. ANOTHER LULL IN THE PRECIPITATION IS LIKELY LATE FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT. A FAST MOVING CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL THEN STREAK THROUGH SATURDAY AND SATURDAY EVENING...WITH A FEW INCHES OF SNOW POSSIBLE. CURRENT THINKING IS....THE MOISTURE MAY BE A BIT DEEPER ACROSS SOUTHERN OHIO...EASTERN KENTUCKY...SOUTHERN WEST VIRGINIA... AND SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA ON SATURDAY...COMPARED TO NORTHERN WEST VIRGINIA. BUT EVEN THERE...SNOW SHOWERS WILL RETURN IN THE WAKE OF THE CLIPPER...OVERNIGHT SATURDAY NIGHT. AS THE COLD AIR IS REINFORCED ON BLUSTERY WINDS...THE ON AND OFF SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE AROUND SUNDAY...MONDAY...AND TUESDAY. SO GET USE TO THE WINTRY ENVIRONMENT...IT WILL BE CAMPING OUT HERE...
