Good evening, gang. I wanted to drop by for some quick words on our ever-changing weather pattern across the bluegrass state.
Winds are going to crank tonight and into Tuesday as southwesterly winds gust ahead of a cold front. Gusts may reach 40mph at times. This will push some better air into the region for Tuesday and a part of Wednesday.
This is because a cold front moves in and slows down, with some funky weather possible Wednesday. The far north can see some rain and snow, while the far south sees temps make a run at 60.
The colder air wins the fight Thursday into Friday as some snow showers and flurries try to develop.
From there, we watch a weekend storm system come together to produce a potential mess across our region. Rain, snow and some freezing rain are all possible depending on the storm track. The GFS is taking on a colder look for Sunday…
The European Model is similar…
Here’s the winter weather accumulation from that run of the European…
We will continue to watch the trends with that system.
See you guys later tonight for an update. Have a great evening and take care.
Sounds great! I’ll take that dry run at 60 degrees anyday over any other scenario, including snow
Well that’s a accumulation map worth getting excited about. Not
so far, this has been the winter that wasnt. even though we have a month and a half of winter left, at this point im so ready for spring. bring on the 60’s and let it stick around. im ready to sit on my back porch and enjoy a good ol’ thunderstorm.
Pitiful
Every single potential winter storm this winter goes to a rain scenario. I don’t see how or why the weekend storm will be any different. I’m not even going to trend it I’ve read this book to many times all winter long.

2016-17 “The Winter that never was”
You know what happens Mother Nature when you keep teasing us with “Potential Snow Storm’s” that never occur all winter long??? You just made the list!!! What’s that??? Is that the GFS laughing in the background is it funny? GFS, you just made the list!
Winter 2016-2017 hasn’t even flirted with a decent event. Didn’t even get to watch the 7 day out storms this winter. Bring spring.
True. Seems a given now this could be the first winter in CB’s blog history since not one Threat Mode. I have followed him since the beginning days when he was with TG, back when they both blogged.
The bar is now as low as the lows that keep raining on us.
A winter where my children have not been able to sled or make a snowball. No driveway shoveling or the beauty of sitting inside watching the snow come down hard. It’s time.
from a “possible major Ohio Valley winter storm”, to another 1-2″ snowfall, if any at all.
This might be the crappiest winter ever!
I will say, we’re definitely not the only ones. Cities to the north and west of us are also snow starved and well below their normal totals to date.
I completely stopped checking every single computer model. The letdown is too depressing.
What happened to major storm potential? I think even CB is disgusted with this winter. He loves threat mode and the thrill of posting snow totals. This is a boring bust for him too with all of these rain/warm updates.
Other than needing freezes to kill off bugs and other nasties, I love warmer winters.
