| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A winter storm in the plain states moved into Indiana on January 15th producing rain, freezing rain, sleet and snow across most parts of the state. Freezing rain did not result in widespread power outages but did lead to numerous car accidents. Snowfall amounts averaged 3 to 5 inches across the central third of Indiana with most accumulation occurring just before the precipitation ended. Bitter cold arctic air poured in behind this weather system producing wind chills to 30 below zero. Drifting and blowing snow also caused several hours of white-out conditions on the 16th. Heavy lake effect snows associated with the arctic outbreak were confined to Indiana counties near Lake Michigan. |
