The morning rush hour and the rest of the day were spared from icy conditions due to a later passing of the cold front this morning. Limited backside moisture also decreased the amount of snow showers we saw as well. Overall, we were pretty lucky that the front didn't come through earlier and cause a flash-freeze situation on the roads.
Our next clipper system comes through on Wednesday afternoon, giving us a chance for a little more snow throughout the afternoon and evening hours. Since the low will be tracking north of the area, don't expect much in the way of accumulation, if any at all. A couple models started putting the storm on a more southerly track last night, but they haven't put it far enough south to make a big difference here. Places north of Indianapolis will see a few inches of snow.
Cold temperatures are staying around for a while, with a high in the mid 30s tomorrow. By Thursday and Friday, temperatures won't even reach 20 degrees for a high! Lows for both of those days will most likely be in the single digits. Stay warm!

This cold air set up is similar to the cold snap right after Christmas. Snowpack not too far to the north (North-central IL), a screaming NW wind and -30 to -40 air to work with. Even without snow on the ground we may go zero or a couple below Friday AM. Wish we could get more snow out of this, but like my summer theory of... if it is going to be 98 degrees then it might as well be 100. My winter theory is if it is going to be 3 for a low, it might as well be zero... All of the above just sounds more impressive.
Speaking of CJ, I saw your video on the CJ site. Nice.
I would recommend playing with your white balance settings. Your video has a yellow tint to it when it gets to you doing the weather. The rest of it (graphics, lead-in, etc.) looks good, though.
Funny you mention that... I just got a new camera. I'm still playing with the white balance and lighting situation, so thanks for the heads up!
