A compact upper low moving southeast from the upper Midwest brought heavy snow across all of southern Indiana. This storm traveled along a track typical of Alberta Clippers, which originate in Canada. While most clippers bring only light snow, this storm brought widespread 6 to 12 inch snows across southern Indiana. This region was located just north of the track of the surface low, and fell within an extensive deformation zone that developed just north of the upper low. Snow began around midnight and brought 4 to 6 inches by dawn. An additional 4 to 6 inches fell later that morning within an extensive area of snow northwest of the upper low's track. Heavy snow and blowing snow lead to several counties declaring snow emergencies, restricting local roads to official traffic only.
