In a twist only Mother nature can provide, Cincinnati finds itself shrouded in a cold embrace as unseasonably cold temperatures grip the region. Northwesterly winds are also triggering flurries which should end before midnight. Overnight lows will fall to the mid 20s. However, with the wind chill, it'll feel like the teens in many areas around 7am. So, the delicate buds of spring now face a daunting challenge against the cold air onslaught. Nature's calendar is disrupted, as early bloomers struggle to withstand the bitter chill.
Could we see snow into our Springtime, sure! But, as it's an El Nino year, it's more likely to follow last year's trend.
The feel of Spring returns on time for Tuesday. The Vernal Equinox arrives at 11:06pm and before that the winter winds will remind you of the chill of the season. My afternoon highs will reach the lower 50s, but will feel more like the 40s for the day. In fact, the highs remain chilly and slightly below average in the mid 40s to low 50s through Thursday.
Friday is likely our next wet weather day. A cold front will produce rain and deliver cool air into the weekend. Yet, Saturday and Sunday will stay dry with partly to mostly sunny skies.
