i'm jonathan hawgood. this is meteorologist jennifer schack. the dark, early morning behind us. jennifer: it gets light out later. jonathan: this has been the hardest week to get up. i slept until like 6:45 a couple times. crazy. jennifer: mind blown. my kids have slept in, which is nice. the nice weather, been out in the evening, been sleeping in in the morning. this weekend, we get a break from the nice weather. jonathan: cold temperatures help you cozy up and sleep more. jennifer: if you were hoping for a few more winter-like days. i have it in store for you. 30s and wet snowflakes. it's been a month since we've seen snow. we have the cloud cover in place. it's dry outside, though it's atmosphere. some locations, we may be seeing sprinkles make it to the ground. i haven't had ground confirmation from anyone yet. but we'd need heavier bants to make it to the ground. we have very dry air at the surface. it's heavier in indiana, heavy in west virginia. in between, light precipitation aloft. temperatures in the mid 40s. that's an important note. if we're going to see wet snowflake

i'm jonathan hawgood. i didn't get a hair cut this week. jennifer schack did. looks good. jennifer: thank you very much. i said spice it up. take it back to where it probably should have been. we had a photo shoot for the weather department. things will be rolling out soon. jonathan: looking forward to the new promotions. and looking forward to the string of 60 and above. jennifer: we'll book end the forecast. rainy today. rainy late in the seven day, but nice days in between. one of them falls tomorrow. we start the warmup. this morning, satellite and radar showing we have a band of moisture arriving at this point. flur res flying, a snow shower or two. the southwest counties. barntd r band currently moving. heading down 71 and 65 south of the split. we'll run into snow showers. it could should be close to the freezing mark. slick spots could be isolated this morning. not too much of a problem. this is the morning mix for the early morning hours. we'll climb nicely. it should be all rain showers for the midday and afternoon. visibilities are down. we have temperatures sit

i'm jonathan hawgood. meteorologist jennifer schack, what is that? is that rain out there? looks wet. jennifer: well, i'm still assessing it with you. but when you see a little bit of variation in the clouds in the top left and then you get a little misty foggy maybe bottom right. visibility is being reported at four miles and the humidity is up quite high. so i do think we're seeing a little bit of mist, maybe wet snowflakes in northern kentucky. it's going to be cloudy, damp, drizzly. although it's not a washout, you're dealing with the moisture all day. jonathan: great day for a frog. jennifer: yes. if you're running for the bockfest, it's an early march event. not ideal. i don't think we see sunshine today. but for the 10:00 run, we're talking cloudy, maybe damp and drizzly, but the showers, the rain showers are probably not until our midday to afternoon hours and we will see scattered showers then through the afternoon and evening. so satellite and radar shmorning, you can see quite a bit of moisture in the form of wet snowflakes for indiana, northern kentucky. they di

i'm jonathan hawgood. miriah turner is filling in for jennifer schack. thank you. citycam 5 has a red patch on the horizon miriah: it's beautiful. jonathan: those clouds help mute it, like it was a horn or something, blowing its beautiful music. isn't that beautiful? miriah: it is. i like how you said the clouds will be muting it, because they're kind of muting our whole week end. jonathan: are they? miriah: they're sticking around. jonathan: but we have warmer temperatures. miriah: spring is around the corner. next sunday, we welcome spring. but it's already feeling like it. seeing the showers, though, so my husband said i have to mow the grass soon. we're seeing rain currently right now, sitting off to the south and west. so we'll start to see this rolling up into our area tonight. could see light scattered sprinkles today. it's wet but not a washout. today looks to be a dryer day of the weekend. tomorrow because of the rain coming in tomorrow night, tomorrow looks a little more wet than we're seeing today. closer on radar. the day planner stacking up like this. c
