Cincinnati Weather to Take a Wintery Turn After Warm Saturday

Cincinnati, OH – Greater Cincinnati residents should prepare for a dramatic shift in weather this weekend, trading sunshine and mild temperatures for a taste of winter by Sunday evening.

Saturday promises a pleasant, fall-like day with sunny skies and highs reaching into the 60s. However, the reprieve from colder weather will be short-lived.

A strong cold front is expected to arrive on Sunday, bringing rain and a significant drop in temperatures. By Sunday evening, rain showers could mix with or transition to flurries and snow showers, particularly around sunset. While the high for Sunday is forecast to be 52, temperatures are expected to fall throughout the day, settling into the 40s.

The real wintery punch arrives Monday morning. Additional snow showers are expected, potentially leading to light accumulations. While most areas are likely to see a dusting, some towns could receive closer to 1-2 inches, primarily on grassy surfaces and rooftops. Motorists are urged to exercise caution, especially on bridges and elevated surfaces, as slick spots are possible.

The arctic blast will send wind chills plummeting to the teens early Monday, rising only to the 20s in the afternoon. The high temperature for Monday is only expected to reach 34 degrees.

While the average date of the first measurable snowfall in Cincinnati is Nov. 29 and the average date for the first inch or more of snowfall is Dec. 15, this early taste of winter is not entirely unexpected. NOAA’s three-month outlook predicts equal chances for above, below, or normal temperatures in the region, with a wetter-than-normal precipitation outlook across the northern U.S., including Greater Cincinnati.

This increased chance of precipitation is partly attributed to a La Nina pattern expected to persist through the 2025-26 winter season. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center suggests a potentially weak and short-duration La Nina, still favoring cooler and wetter conditions for the northern Plains.

Weather experts advise residents to stay tuned to WLWT and other local news outlets for the latest updates and to adjust their plans accordingly as the winter weather approaches.
