Subzero wind chills still loom, but all advisories lifted for Greater Cincinnati


The worst part of this weekend’s weather forecast is now in the rearview mirror with bitterly cold wind chills remaining as the only concern until late Monday evening, according to the National Weather Service in Wilmington.

After snow blanketed the southwest Ohio and Northern Kentucky regions over the last couple of days, all weather advisories that were implemented in that time were lifted early Saturday afternoon. Additionally, clearer skies and little to no precipitation are in the forecast for the rest of the weekend.

However, single-digit temperatures, as well as wind chill values between 5 and 10 degrees below zero, are still likely Saturday evening into Sunday morning. The weather service urges to avoid outside activities, or to at least wear warm clothing, including a hat and gloves, when spending time outdoors.

Rain is back in the forecast next week as there is a slight chance of showers before 9 p.m. Monday, then a chance of rain or freezing rain.

How much snow did Greater Cincinnati get?

According to data collected by the National Weather Service, Greater Cincinnati received between 1 and 4 inches of snow Friday, depending on the area. Union in Northern Kentucky has the highest recorded amount so far at 4 inches. There were 3.8 inches recorded in Hebron and 3.5 inches in Florence early Friday.
