Good Sunday and Happy Super Bowl. Old Man Winter is about to surge back into the bluegrass state with rounds of snow and arctic cold temperatures.

The first system zips in here tonight and Monday morning with a band of rain and snow. This starts as rain, but should quickly go over to snow and could put down a slushy accumulation for some areas. Here’s the Hi Res NAM simulated radar to start Monday…

NAM 3

Temps directly behind that first wave stay above freezing into Monday afternoon. That changes as the next wave of snow showers and squalls move in from Monday afternoon into Monday evening. There is a definitive convective look to the future radar during this time…

NAM

That means the potential for blinding snow squalls that can drop a quick inch or two in a short amount of time. Winds would blow that around and we even have a small threat for some thundersnow.

The 10-1 (no fluff factor) snowfall map from that same run suggests some serious squall potential…

NAM 4

Travel issues will likely develop Monday night into Tuesday. I anticipate Winter Weather Advisories being issues for much for much of the region. They are certainly warranted, but that’s out of my control.

The northwesterly flow really kicks on Tuesday into Tuesday night with widespread snow showers and some squalls continuing…

NAM 2

Bitterly cold temps continue to push in during this time as snow showers last into Wednesday. Highs Wednesday and Thursday will have a hard time getting out or the teens with single digit lows possible. Below zero wind chills continue to show up at times…

GFS Temps

Another clipper dives in later Friday with a fresh round of arctic air for the weekend…

Euro 2

The European Model continues to show a healthy snowstorm by next Sunday and Monday…

Euro 3

I will have the very latest on WKYT-TV tonight after the Super Bowl. Until then, I have your tracking toys…

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday and take care.
