Good afternoon, folks. We continue to track two winter weather systems for the week ahead. The first rolls in here later Monday, with the second one due in later in the week. That system can bring a bigger threat of winter weather to our region.

The Monday light snow maker arrives during the afternoon and evening behind a cold front. Periods of light snow and snow showers will be likely, putting down light accumulations. The best chance to pick up on accumulating snows will be in the mountains of the east.

That’s where a few models are spitting out an inch or so…

With temps dropping toward 20 late Monday night, slick spots may easily develop on roads in the east.

The late week system continues to evolve and we finally have the GFS doing what it does best… losing systems in that 3-6 day window…

That said, I mentioned in my last post that this system would trend more south than north. I just think it’s way too weak. Can that above scenario happen? Only if the arctic front just crushes everything.

The Canadian Model continues to show a healthy hit across Kentucky and surrounding areas…

The European Model is more similar to the Canadian, but has a slower transition from rain to snow…

There are still lots of questions surrounding this upcoming system, and we are firmly in that window of the models missing out on key aspects of any such system.

I will have another update later this evening. Make it a good one and take care.
