Good afternoon gang. I am planning on a much bigger update later this afternoon or early evening but I did want to drop by to show you how the GFS is coming around to what we have been saying for a while… that our pattern is likely to put snow on the ground this weekend into early next week.

There is also a notable westward shift to the main low across the deep south and southeast for late Friday into Saturday. The GFS is actually bringing snow from this low into southeastern Kentucky. If that trend continues… this will be a much bigger threat for several inches of snow in the south and east. The closer that low gets with the system diving in from the northwest… the greater the chance everyone gets a nice snowfall. As is… the GFS is saying everybody gets a snowfall Saturday with southeastern Ky having a shot at a few or more inches. It is also coming around to the clipper idea for late Sunday into Monday and that is likely to bring a swath of accumulating snows to the state. It is a robust little system that can overachieve. Here is the GFS snow total from Friday through early Monday…



That is showing a widespread 2″-4″ during this time with southeastern Kentucky getting 5″. Again… that is what the model is saying… NOT ME.

More coming up later… I told you this would be fun!! Take care.
