Good afternoon, everyone. Today’s weather is certainly all over the place across the fine Commonwealth of Kentucky. Temps in the north are in the middle 30s while the 60s show up in the far southeast. With the wild temp swing comes a lot of ugly weather with rain, low clouds and fog.
Sunday’s weather will feature… Wait for it, wait for it… More of the same!
Monday will find the warmer air wins the battle by Monday on a strong southwesterly wind. Temps should hit the 60s with showers and thunderstorms increasing late in the day. Those will continue into Tuesday as a weak cold front moves in…
After a brief drop in temps, the next system quickly ejects out of the southwest and brings more showers and thunderstorms in here for the end of the week…
At first glance, that looks like a severe weather maker to our south, with the potential to move into our part of the world. Worth watching.
After that, we continue to find all the models following the theme of the past several winters… Back loaded snow and cold.
There is strong agreement for a major cutoff storm system late next weekend into early the following week…
Watch how the European Model wraps this system up and allows cold air in here…
Those setups can lead to high winds and thunderstorms to start, with cold and snow moving in as winter overwhelms the pattern.
The GFS is also showing this…
This follows along very well with what the ensembles have been screaming now for a few days. They continue to point toward a full blown back loaded winter kicking in…
It’s pretty amazing at how the extremes this winter has thrown at us, so it wouldn’t come as a surprise to see this pattern absolutely tank. It would certainly follow the precedent set by the past several winters.
Remember all the times from the past few years that I talked about how repetitive the weather patterns have been? Well… There ya go. 😉
I will have another update later tonight. Enjoy your evening and take care.
Man no comments on the monster old skool thumping the GFS is putting on us at the end of the month.
Will it happen this time?
Let’s all hope for a backloaded winter with cold and snow all of Feb and half of March.
No comments needed it’s the GFS doing it’s typical fantasy 10-14 day Kentucky blizzard.
This. It’s a Lucy model for snow.
It’s a less annoying version of Rolo.
Bring it on.
It will be Rain boooo!
Pure fiction, just like that set of snow maps from back in December.
My comment was directed at the GFS storm at the end of the month.
Time will tell. For now, we can hope for snow. 🙂
Every single snowstorm will bring in enough warm air for cold rain for all kentucky with possibly one all light snow event from a Alberta clipper
Then it wouldn’t be a snowstorm would it
Like!
I’m beginning to learn. DO NOT get excited at models 10-14 or more days out. The sleds are calling. But I’m not answering.
Yet.
