A very active weather period starts for us with a chance for rain to ring in the new year, heavy rain that could cause flooding on Saturday and the potential for snow showers on Sunday right as Bengals game is done.
However, Friday starts off quiet and mild with afternoon highs reaching near 60 degrees. But, rain moves in for the evening and becomes heavy overnight into Saturday.

In fact, we have a FLOOD WATCH out for a good portion of Northern Kentucky and it's possible it could get extended across the river. While temperatures get back to the 50s on Saturday, torrential rain will hit off and on right into Saturday evening. We could easily see 1-2" and some spots might get 3" or more.
A FLOOD WATCH is out for the counties in green from late Friday night and all day Saturday.2-3" of rain will likely fall across this area. Minor flooding is possible @wcpo #cincywx pic.twitter.com/rimubZtVvV

On Sunday, much colder air filters across the area setting up the chance for snow. This is not a guarantee, but be aware we could see a dusting to 1/2" during the afternoon around 4 p.m. Highs will be near freezing during the afternoon.
