Winter Weather Advisory<br/>

Today's forecast starts dry, cloudy, and cold, with a low of 30 degrees. Temperatures will be very slow to rise today, only warming to 36 this afternoon. But the focus this afternoon will be when the rain starts, and who could see freezing rain?

Isolated showers will begin after 4 p.m., and we'll see more rain dotting the radar as we get to 8 p.m. For most of us, this will be rain with no freezing issue. The Cincinnati metro should not deal with ice, especially since the pavement is above freezing. However, in our northern towns and counties, there is a window of opportunity to see some ice forming on roads and elevated surfaces.

The NWS has issued a WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY for Bulter, Clinton, Warren (OH), Fayette, Franklin, and Union (IN) County from 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. Less than 0.10" of ice is possible, but it could still lead to hit-or-miss slick spots.

Also, overnight, a more organized area of showers will pass closer to midnight, and this could lead to some isolated storms, too. Severe weather is not expected.

We'll see the chance for some isolated showers early Thursday morning in our eastern locations, but it now looks like rain should move out, and we should dry out for much of the day. The sky will turn partly cloudy as temperatures rise to the low 60s. It will end up being a very pleasant day!

Cooler air settles in on Friday, resulting in highs in the mid-40s, but seeing a mostly sunny sky will be nice!
