Good afternoon, everyone. With our major temperature drop pressing across the state, freezing rain, sleet and snow are taking over, as our winter storm starts to crank.

Overall, I don’t have any significant changes to my thought process on the evolution of this storm. The actual low doesn’t deepen until later today into the evening as it passes through east Tennessee into West Virginia. That’s when we see the increasing band of snow, resembling a comma head, really crank up. This will sweep eastward across the state through early Saturday.

As I told you earlier, the snow part of this for central and eastern Kentucky doesn’t come until the evening hours. The quicker the change to snow, the more accumulations where you live. The slower, the lower. Regardless, snow will blanket the state tonight, with several inches for many. Travel conditions will continue to worsen from west to east, and really get bad this evening.

I have your tracking toys to carry you through the day…
