Good Tuesday, everyone. Our early season blast of winter weather is nothing short of awesome and is living up to to it’s billing. Record snows fell in some areas on Monday and now comes the potential for record cold as Old Man Winter comes out swinging.

This is mainly a tracking update, but I do want to throw some fresh thoughts your way:

  • Our system snows wind down across southeastern Kentucky early this morning.
  • Temps to start out the day will range from the middle teens to low 20s but wind chills will be in the single digits at times.
  • Slick travel is a good bet for many areas.
  • Highs this afternoon stay in the 20s with a wind chill in the teens. That’s super hard to do this early in the season.
  • Don’t sleep on the northwest arctic flow coming down the length of Lake Michigan and into central and eastern Kentucky. A few snow showers and snow squalls will likely develop. Those could drop some hit and run accumulations and lower visibility at times. This might be enough to keep the Winter Weather Advisory rolling through the afternoon, at least in my eyes.
  • Clearing skies tonight will allow temps to head close to record territory by Wednesday morning. Readings from 10 to 15 will be possible, but the colder valleys may reach the high single digits. Wind chills will be colder than the actual temps.

I will be back for the usual updates later today. Until then, keep on tracking this big blast of early season winter weather…
