-- OVERVIEW AND SYNOPSIS --

HERE IS THE LATEST WEATHER SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE OHIO VALLEY AND  
CENTRAL APPALACHIANS... Patchy fog in favored river valleys will  
dissipate by mid morning, with another warm day on tap. Clouds will  
gradually be increasing during the day however, out ahead of the next  
system. That next system will bring a soaking rain late Wednesday or  
Wednesday night through Thursday. A strong cold front associated with  
that system could bring a line of strong, heavy showers as it crosses  
Thursday. This is likely to happen late morning or early afternoon  
Thursday in Ohio and northeastern Kentucky. However, this is likely to  
take place later in the afternoon as one goes east across West  
Virginia and southwestern Virginia. Behind the front, plummeting  
temperatures, gusty winds and rain late Thursday and Thursday evening  
are likely to make a mess of trick or treat, especially east of the  
Ohio River. Wind-blown leaves will clog drainages and aggravate  
ponding of water on roads, as rainfall totals with this system could  
be in the two to three inch range. Temperatures will be low enough for  
snow across the highest ridges by Friday morning, before the  
precipitation ends up there. Strong, gusty winds will continue  
Thursday night into Friday, especially across the ridges. The first  
freeze of the season out across the lowlands is likely to come in  
three consecutive mornings Saturday, Sunday and Monday, amid much  
quieter weather.
