Snow developed along an Arctic cold front as it sliced southeast across southwest Indiana during the morning hours. As the front slowed down over the Tennessee Valley late in the day, a weak surface low developed on the front. This caused snow to linger across Spencer County through the evening hours. The result was an area of heavy snowfall in Spencer County, where 4 inches was reported. Across the remainder of southwest Indiana, including Evansville and Princeton, amounts ranged from 2 to 3 inches. Much of the snow melted on treated road surfaces during the day, but conditions rapidly deteriorated after dark as temperatures dropped through the teens. Wind chill indices were in the teens during most of the snowstorm. Cold temperatures reduced the effectiveness of road salt, which slowed recovery efforts in the wake of the storm. Schools remained closed following the storm.

This lake effect event off Lake Ontario was very brief, but was intense while it lasted.  A band of tea kettle lake effect snow was present much of the day on the 1st over the middle of the lake, not impacting any of the shoreline.  This band moved onshore at the east end of the lake during the mid to late afternoon on the 1st and was accompanied by a meso-low that produced a quick three to six inches of accumulation at the east end of the lake across the Tug Hill region.  An intense single band of lake effect snow developed as westerly flow increased across the lake.  The snow came onshore across central Oswego County during the evening from the City of Oswego to Scriba and Mexico.  This band produced prolific snowfall rates of six inches per hour, dropping 1 to 2 feet of snow in a narrow corridor in just a few short hours.  The heavy snow quickly broke apart by late evening as a cold front crossed Lake Ontario and pushed the entire band onshore across Oswego, northern Cayuga, and Wayne counties.  Following the cold front, much weaker multiple bands developed in northwest flow from Wayne to Oswego counties through the rest of the night. Specific snowfall reports received included: 23 inches at Oswego, 22 inches at Scriba, 16 inches at Mexico, 11 inches at Hastings, 8 inches at Minetto.
