(Cleveland)- Weather and other officials say, It appears we have dodged another one!!!    Don Strength weather specialist with the White County Emergency Management Agency  said Saturday morning, A warm layer of air from the Gulf of Mexico (Warm Nose) kept our precipitation liquid longer than expected resulting is less snow accumulation. We averaged  2.5″ county wide with a few higher amounts in some locations.

Strength said, temperatures are not expected to get above 32  Saturday  so there will be some travel issues especially on the secondary roads.

According to Strength, we will get some sun today and that may help melt some of the snow but we should remain below freezing so most of what is out there will remain probably through Sunday or maybe even Monday.  Primary Roads seem to be in good shape, the less traveled roads are ice covered and dangerous.

Temperatures are expected to drop to around 12 tonight with wind chill of zero or below.  Sunny and 33 Sunday and the wind Chill may dip to -1 at times. Sunday night 16 and up to 36 on Monday.  Any Snow or melting snow will certainly refreeze and could cause Black Ice both mornings.
