Groundhog May be Right! Snow & Wind Return Tonight

Here is a picture of Chuckie Wheezer from this morning and you can clearly see the shadow which means six more weeks of winter on the way.

Here we go again....not one but two cold fronts are on the way between now and tomorrow afternoon. The wind will pick up and the snow will fly. Blowing and drifting snow will be likely with many areas receiving between one and two inches of snow between now and Tuesday night. More snow can be expected in Newton and Jasper Counties with 2 to 4 inches north of Rensselaer. The jackpot will be up near Michigan City where they could see a foot of snow. Here at home the travel advisories were finally lifted but it will not be for long. Make sure to tune in tonight for the latest. Here is a special treat or Groundhog Day recipe from Cathy Banes Kindergarten Class. Enjoy and I will see you soon!!

Cupcake (flavor of your choice)

Chocolate frosting

Mini vanilla wafers (for ears)

M & M's for eyes and nose

Mini marshmallows for teeth

Enjoy!

I will be back with your meteorological outlook for the rest of the winter on tonight's newscasts and post more fun stuff here on the blog for your shortly!

I agree with the first post! I don't want six more weeks of subzero, snow flying, ice pelting winter. But a light dusting might be alright, LOL
