Updated: 12:32 PM EST Feb 15, 2025
LEADING THE WAY. GOOD MORNING, AND THANKS FOR JOINING US AT 6:00 ON THIS SATURDAY OF VALENTINE’S WEEKEND. I’M TIFFANY WILSON HERE WITH METEOROLOGIST ERICA KELLER. THIS IS CERTAINLY NOT THE WEATHER THAT ANYONE IS EXCITED ABOUT TO GO OUT ON A DATE NIGHT OR ANYTHING. HEAVY RAIN AND THEN EVEN SNOW TOMORROW. YEAH, WE ARE LOOKING AT A VERY SOGGY EVENING, SO MAKE SURE YOU ARE MENTALLY PREPARING YOUR OUTFIT FOR LATER TONIGHT. IF YOU ARE HEADED OUT AND YOU’RE PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE TO LEAVE A LITTLE BIT EARLY BECAUSE TRAFFIC IS PROBABLY GOING TO BE A BIT SLOWER BECAUSE OF THE HEAVY RAIN THAT WE’RE ANTICIPATING FOR LATER THIS EVENING. RIGHT NOW WE ARE TRACKING A LITTLE BIT OF SOME SLEET AND FREEZING RAIN. THAT’S WHAT YOU SEE HERE IN PINK. WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF SNOW MOVE THROUGH OVERNIGHT AND THAT HAS PUSHED NORTH AND EAST OF US, HEADING TOWARD COLUMBUS. BUT WE ARE LOOKING AT A TRANSITION FROM THAT COLDER WEATHER TO SOME WARMER WEATHER EVEN THROUGH THIS MORNING. SO WE’RE LOOKING AT THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME SLICK SPOTS, MAINLY ACROSS AREAS NORTH OF CINCINNATI. SO BE CAREFUL IF YOU HAVE TO HEAD OUT. EARLY THIS MORNING. I WOULD WAIT A FEW HOURS. IF YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO OUT, YOU KNOW, WAIT. WAIT UNTIL THESE TEMPERATURES GET A LITTLE BIT WARMER THROUGHOUT THE MORNING. WE’RE LOOKING AT PLAIN OLD RAIN ACROSS THE SOUTH AND AREAS IN GREEN. BUT LOOK AT THESE ROAD TEMPERATURES. SO WE’RE BELOW FREEZING FOR THESE AREAS IN THIS NAVY DARK BLUE THAT YOU SEE HERE. SO THOSE ARE THE AREAS THAT I’M MOST CONCERNED WITH. AREAS FROM CINCINNATI DOWN TO INDEPENDENCE, DRY RIDGE AND SOUTHWARD. WE ARE SEEING ROAD TEMPERATURES AT OR ABOVE 32. SO THINGS ARE JUST GOING TO BE PRIMARILY WET IN THOSE LOCATIONS. BUT IF YOU LIVE ACROSS OUR FAR NORTHERN COMMUNITIES, THAT IS WHERE WE’RE SEEING SOME OF THOSE ROADS DETERIORATE. AND HERE IN GREEN MEANS PLAIN OLD WET ROADS FROM THE RAIN. BUT UP TO OUR NORTH, WHERE WE HAVE THESE PINKS AND THESE REDS, THAT IS, THAT MEANS ICY CONDITIONS. SO WE COULD HAVE SOME ICY SPOTS, ICY ROADS. SO JUST BE CAREFUL, ESPECIALLY ON THE BRIDGES AND THE OVERPASSES, BECAUSE WE ARE SEEING TEMPERATURES AND ROAD TEMPERATURES BELOW FREEZING IN SOME SPOTS. NOW, AIR TEMPERATURES FOR THE MOST PART RIGHT AROUND 3334 DEGREES. WE GOT A COUPLE OF AREAS THAT ARE NEAR FREEZING, LIKE MIDDLETOWN AT 32, BROOKVILLE AT 32, CONNERSVILLE, BATESVILLE ALL AROUND THAT FREEZING MARK. SO THAT’S WHERE WE’LL NEED TO WATCH OUT. AND THAT’S WHERE WE HAVE THAT WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR AREAS IN UNION AND FAYETTE COUNTY UNTIL 10:00 THIS MORNING. THEN WE TRANSITION TO WARMER, WETTER WEATHER INTO THIS AFTERNOON. A FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR AREAS IN GREEN FROM 1:00 TODAY UNTIL 4:00 TOMORROW AFTERNOON. SO TODAY’S TEMPERATURES DO IMPROVE. I DO EXPECT ROAD CONDITIONS TO IMPROVE WHERE THEY ARE A BIT SLICK RIGHT NOW, BUT TEMPERATURES WILL CLIMB INTO THE 40S EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. WE TOP OUT IN THE MID 40S IN CINCINNATI, A LITTLE COOLER TO THE NORTH, A LITTLE MILDER TO THE SOUTH. BUT COMING UP IN MY FULL FORECAST, WE’VE GOT A LOT TO TRACK. SO HIGH WATER ISSUES GETTING INTO THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS BECAUSE OF INCHES OF RAIN THAT WILL ACCUMULATE IN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AND THEN WE’RE LOOKING AT THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME ACCUMULATING SNOW FOR SOME OF YOU FOR SUNDAY. SO I’LL SHOW YOU THAT HOUR BY HOUR ON FUTURECAST COMING UP IN MY FULL FORECAST. TIFFANY. ERICA. THANK YOU. WELL, CAMPBELL COUNTY’S EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT LEADERS ASKING NEIGHBORS TO PREPARE FOR THEIR STREETS, THEIR YARDS AND EVEN THEIR BASEMENTS TO FLOOD AS HEAVY RAIN MOVES IN THIS AFTERNOON, THE ENTIRE STATE OF KENTUCKY IS UNDER A FLOOD WATCH. AND GOVERNOR BESHEAR SAYING THAT THE RAIN CAN BE UNPREDICTABLE. WE WON’T KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THE MAJORITY OF RAIN WILL GO UNTIL RIGHT UP INTO SATURDAY. OF COURSE, WE HOPE IT CONTINUES TO MOVE NORTHWARD AND MISSES MOST OF KENTUCKY, BUT WE HAVE TO PREPARE FOR SIGNIFICANT RAIN. GOVERNOR BESHEAR, REFERENCING THIS MAP SHOWING RIVER FORECASTS AND THOSE COLORED SQUARES INDICATING AREAS THAT WILL LIKELY SEE FLOODING. AND AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE SEVERAL HIGH RISK SPOTS IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY. WELL, WITH A WEEKEND FULL OF IMPACTFUL WEATHER, WE ARE KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON THE ROADS. WLWT NEWS FIVE’S RICHARD CHILES JOINS US LIVE FROM OUR STORM TRACKER. GOOD MORNING. RICHARD, WHERE ARE YOU RIGHT NOW AND WHAT ARE YOU SEEING ON THE ROADS? TIFFANY. GOOD MORNING. WORKING OUR WAY WESTBOUND ON 275 AND STORM TRACKER GOING TO GIVE YOU A LIVE LOOK. ROADWAY SURFACES ARE CLEAR AGAIN. WE’RE STARTING TO SEE THAT RAIN FALLING A LITTLE BIT HEAVIER NOW. AS METEOROLOGIST ERIC HAS DESCRIBED, ONE OF THE PARTICULAR CONCERNS WITH THESE TEMPERATURES THAT ARE AMBIENTLY FLOATING AROUND 35 DEGREES, BUT WITH COLDER ROAD SURFACES, IT’S GOING TO BE MAKING SURE THAT YOU’RE SAFE ON THE OVERPASSES, THE BRIDGES, AND OF COURSE, THE ON RAMPS. THAT’S THE AREA OF PARTICULAR CONCERN. WE HAVE BEEN MONITORING RADIO DISPATCH, HAVEN’T HEARD A LOT OF POLICE ACTIVITY OR DISPATCHERS SENDING CREWS OUT TO ACCIDENTS. SO THAT’S GOOD NEWS FOR US. BUT AGAIN, AS THESE WEATHER TEMPERATURES ARE TRANSITIONAL, THAT’S GOING TO BE THE STORY OF THE DAY. ROAD SURFACES AGAIN HAVE BEEN WET. SOME OF THE CONCERNS OF COURSE. SO WHEN WE SEE SOME OF THAT OIL, THAT BLACK ICE THAT AGAIN HAS BECOME SLICK, THAT’S ALWAYS GOING TO BE AN ISSUE FOR MOTORISTS GETTING OUT IN THE EARLY MORNING PART OF THEIR COMMUTE. SO AGAIN, JUST ALWAYS ADVISING TAKE YOUR TIME, GIVE COURTESY TO YOUR FELLOW DRIVER. MAKE SURE THAT YOU’RE GETTING IT SAFELY TO WHERE YOU’RE HEADED. REPORTING LIVE THIS MORNING IN STORM TRACKER RICHARD CHILES WLWT NEWS FIVE. RICHARD, THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND REMEMBER THAT YOU CAN STAY AHEAD OF THE RAIN BY DOWNLOADING THE FREE WLWT MOBILE APP. JUST MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE THE ALERTS TURNED ON, AND WE WILL NOTIFY YOU WHENEVER TH
