Good evening, gang. I wanted to drop by for a quick update on the late week cold front ready to blast the bluegrass state. This front continues to look like it will have a healthy line of showers and storms with it and a blast of real deal chill behind it.
Let me begin with a brand spanking new Kentucky Weather Podcast. There’s a lot of laughing in this one as we talk about weather, haters and our taigating adventures…
The timing of this front continues to be from late Friday through early Saturday. This is part of the same storm system producing major early season snows across the Rockies and upper midwest. Obviously, we won’t be seeing anything close to that, but winds will be gusty as showers and a few storms sweep across the region…
Temps may be near 80 ahead of the front then drop into the 30s behind it by Saturday morning. You can see how the chilly temps settle in for the weekend, potentially leading to a frost threat…
All of this continues to be part of a pattern that should feature a fairly deep trough in the eastern part of the country through next week. This may develop storm that takes a cold season track from the south then up the coast…
In November, that same setup would be a snow maker around here.
On my next update, I’ll talk a little bit about the rest of the month and into November, including potential winter weather. Enjoy the evening and take care.
