The Blizzard of 2012 has moved on and now it’s just the cold that’s left behind…along with an impressive snow pack!

Blizzard warning for Central Indiana from very early Wednesday through 7PM. Heavy snow and strong wind is what is prompting the warning. Definition of blizzard is storm with sustained or gusting wind to 35 mph or higher…that we will have. Also definition includes considerable snow which will reduce visibility to 1/4 mile or less…we will have that as well. Snow totals are not locked in even now.

Rain and freezing rain/sleet is wrapping around system. We believe there will be enough cooling as storm moves in to produce all snow for most of the area…only difference will be southern part. Mix could cut down on snow totals significantly however if is stays all snow in those areas we could see the 5″-12″ band cover a larger area. In the Indianapolis metro area we will most likely stay all snow and therefore snow totals could push 8″-10″ potentially.We could get as much as 1″-3″ by 8am in the morning with totals skyrocketing from there.

Stay tuned, we will have updates through out the night…Daybreak will start at 4AM and we will stay on top of the storm throughout the day.
