AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES AWAY FROM THE REGION OVERNIGHT...COLD AIR WILL
REMAIN IN PLACE FOR SEVERAL HOURS INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.
MEANWHILE...LOW PRESSURE MOVING AWAY FROM THE GULF COAST WILL TRACK
INTO THE OHIO VALLEY OVERNIGHT. STRONG WINDS IN THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE
WILL BRING AN ABUNDANCE OF MOISTURE TO THE AREA. SOME OF THAT
MOISTURE WILL INITIALLY FALL AS A MIXTURE OF SNOW...SLEET AND PERHAPS
SOME FREEZING RAIN...BEFORE CHANGING TO ALL RAIN DURING THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS FRIDAY. 

THE TEMPERATURE BY THE MORNING RUSH HOUR SHOULD BE ABOVE FREEZING IN
MOST AREAS...BUT ANOTHER PROBLEM WILL ARISE. THAT WILL BE HEAVY RAIN
BY LATE MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON. THE RAIN WILL CONTINUE HEAVY...
ESPECIALLY OVER EASTERN SECTIONS INTO FRIDAY NIGHT. FOR THAT REASON A
FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES FOR PART OF THE REGION. 

SINCE THERE IS A THREAT OF MIXED PRECIPITATION AND SOME ICY
SPOTS...AND THE POTENTIAL FOR STREAMS AND ROADWAYS TO FLOOD...PLEASE
CHECK THE LATEST FORECASTS FOR YOUR PARTICULAR LOCATION.
