Good afternoon, gang. As expected, record low temperatures were shattered in many cities across Kentucky this morning. We also have a new record holder for the coldest March temperature ever recorded in Kentucky.
Hillsboro in Fleming County hit -16 this morning and that breaks the old state record of -14 set on this same day back in 1960.
Have I mentioned this winter is Legendary?
Hang in there my frozen friends… better days are on the way…
Enjoy the rest of your day and take care.
Impressive to say the least.
I want to know if we are done with snow! 🙂
Nope.
Hopefully drier days.
Looking like some 70s possibly if I read that map right. Sounds good to us all. 😉
We should have a pretty spring growing season now 🙂
That’s what I was thinking.. As wet as it is, shouldn’t take many warm sunny days before the green really comes on.
A nice garden sounds great!

This is a response to your previous post
The way from Corbin is blocked now. I was sent pictures taken at 8am and the water was over at Thompson park near the flood wall and in the curve right before GR. So that’s 6 places its over on 11S
We could here even more issues depending how quickly the snow melts in places.
hear. I have been flooded out before. Slow recovery.
Here are some pics of snow and more importantly IMO of the rain just from my house to town. Some areas are worse.

Looks pretty rough Andy. At least you don’t have this to deal with…

These folks are really gonna have it rough for a while.
With the work they did during fall and early winter that could still happen or worse yet it could fall in the river
Chris, I know its a week away or a little over, but how concerned are you at what the GFS is showing for next weekend. Looks to the untrained eye, a very slow moving low pressure system that dumps inces of rain on the tristate.
These past 2 days are about as good as it gets. All downhill from here.
weatherbell said in its Saturday summary last week that it is a False Spring coming.Says more winter later in the month into early April.So winter may not be over just yet.

I also think that a big THANK YOU needs to be sent out to our favorite weatherman’s wife and family. Chris works super hard to keep not just his adoring followers, but his viewers, updated on the weather at all times. they make lots sacrifices and he misses some family stuff due to the weather and keeping us on top of what is coming next. so thanks Mrs Weather Lady for letting us borrow your husband! 😉
60’s next week, perhaps 70’s by the weekend. Time to pull out the spring clothes and hopefully in a few weeks we can get the garden bed ready.
This last three weeks has been a snow lover’s dream. Thank you again for the time and effort you put forth on this blog, twitter, and on TV Mr. Bailey.
I think I am officially ready for Spring now. I don’t see much (with my untrained eye) on the future weather models but a drenching rain. Typical Spring weather in my book!
Enjoy the last of the snow folks! Except for maybe the parking lots, I can see some of those piles lasting untill May as high as they are!
I’ll have some great stories to tell my grandkids one day….how it got SUPER cold here in 2015 & how we came so close to getting legendary snows here in Wayne County. (But ya know kids, close only counts in horseshoe’s & hand grenades) I am glad that some true snow lovers got some great snow this season…next year it’s Southern Ky’s turn!
I’m right there with you. Too bad we had to endure the cold and got left out on any significant snowfall. At least a few of us can still talk about the dome.
Are you behind water?

I loved every single flake of it and I will be sad when winter says goodbye for good.
Spring may be OK, but it is far too short and our summers are far too long, too hot and too humid!
Not looking forward to that at all!!!
That’s exactly how I feel.
Now that was short and sweet. Not sure I have ever seen a post that short. Ha ha
Thanks for the update. Oh and it WILL snow again this winter/spring.
Still no electric here in greenup 🙁 booo…looking forward to those warm temps tho
I’ve totally gotten my snow fix and then some! It’s interesting if this is a trend or just an anomaly as someone said earlier. I guess we won’t be able to tell if next year doesn’t have a big snow. Why? Because even places used to getting big snows skip some years without getting one. Look at the 1930s through the 1990s, some years winters didn’t have big snows here, it’s just the length of years between them weren’t as LONG as they have been recently…
now the real question is now that we got our big one, will the blog die?
Yes, it always dies once warm weather stays for good. Sit visits are all downhill from here unless we get another severe tornado outbreak. But then it dies again until November. Happenens every year.
*site
Yea – I visit it most every day, but unless something exciting is going on, I rarely comment during the boring times.
Boy oh boy, that Global Warming is gonna do us all in!
