Cinniapolis residents, prepare for a winter that’s started out frosty and unpredictable! According to Lead Meteorologist Fran Dimple, this Winter will bring a mix of wintry whiteouts and seasonal challenges as temperatures are expected to fluctuate significantly throughout the season.

Winter kicked off with temperatures averaging in the mid-30s, dipping into the 20s overnight. Snow lovers rejoiced, as a light snowfall fell early in the month, just in time to blanket the city for holiday festivities. However, icy conditions kept drivers cautious.

January, so far, has brought the coldest temperatures of the season, with highs in the low 20s and overnight lows plunging into the teens or single digits. A significant snowstorm could impact the area around late-January, with 6–10 inches expected. Be prepared for potential school closures and delays as snowplows work overtime.

February will bring a rollercoaster of temperatures, with alternating periods of mild 40-degree days and sharp freezes. This freeze-thaw cycle may lead to icy roads and potential flooding in low-lying areas. Early signs of spring might appear by late February, but winter’s grip will likely linger into early March.

Stock up on supplies, keep your winter gear handy, and stay tuned to the Chorus for updates as we navigate the winter season.
