Good Wednesday, folks. The weather over the past few months has been nothing short of wild and the overall wild setup looks to continue. A HUGE temperature swing is on the way as our readings go from Sprint to Winter in a matter of hours. Oh, and there’s this snowflake thing we have to watch out for.

Warmer air continues to spread in today and that could produce a shower or thunderstorm. Winds will gust up as temps make a run toward 70 or a little better.

There’s the possibility of a few stronger storms develop across the far west, but much of the severe weather threat looks to be just to our west.

Showers and thunderstorms become widespread on Thursday. Can we get some strong storms out of this? That’s possible if the front is a little slower in slamming in here. The temperature gradient along this front is pretty darn incredible…

Now THAT is what I call a cold front! Some of the models are a little more enthusiastic about the chances for more precipitation falling behind the front in the colder air. Temps by Thursday evening look to drop into the 30s and the NAM suggests some snow possible during that time…

As cold air continues to filter in on Friday, another streak of light snow will target our region. The models vary on where it goes, but the GFS is highlighting parts of central and eastern Kentucky…

The cold behind that for Saturday is looking a little colder as we get closer. Saturday morning lows will likely drop into the upper teens…

GFS TEMPS 2Afternoon highs may not get out of the upper 30s for some areas. Sigh.

The weather for next week will gradually turn milder, but will likely come with some rounds of showers and thunderstorms. The 2 week rainfall forecast from the GFS says to get used to that…

Enjoy your day and take care.
