Good Monday evening everybody. Snow showers and flurries are working across much of central and eastern Kentucky. Temps are dropping below freezing meaning some slick spots will develop on area roads. Here is a radar view showing the northwest to southeast moving snows…
Some of these snow showers have hit the juice and will reduce visibilities to under a quarter mile in a few spots. They will also put down some light accumulations. Here is a map with my updated thoughts…
The mountains of eastern Kentucky may able to pick up an inch out of the heaviest snow showers. Since we are dealing with snow SHOWERS… we will see some holes in the light snowfall. Overnihght temps will settle down into the low to mid 20s so travel could become slick in the morning. Can we get our first school delay? ![]()
Snow showers and flurries will taper off Tuesday with highs only in the low to mid 30s. Winds will be gusty meaning wind chills will be down in the 20s all day. Brrrrrr!
It’s looking like a clipper moving in Thursday and Friday will bring a similar setup compared to what we are currently seeing. The air Friday may be even colder than Tuesday.
I will talk about that and have a look ahead toward Thanksgiving week and some possible fun and games with my late night post.
Btw… the NWS has NO mention of flakes in the forecast this evening for central Ky. I really am ready to give up talking about it since things will never change. ![]()
Take care.

Thanks Chris. NWS Jackson just issued an updated Hazardous Weather Outlook at 7:37:

TONIGHT. AROUND AN INCH OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS
NEAR THE VIRGINIA BORDER…WITH LITTLE OR NO ACCUMULATION EXPECTED
ELSEWHERE. HEAVIER SNOW SHOWERS MAY REDUCE VISIBILITY TO LESS THAN
ONE MILE FOR SHORT PERIODS OF TIME.
I agree Chris makes it hard to get a local forecast when there are no local TV outlets and you have to rely on NWS for you local weather. I’m glad you have this blog that way us small town folks have an idea as to whats going on
I thought I might be the first…but William beat me to the punch. One of the holes seems to be right over top of me on the Rowan/Carter line. Maybe it will fill in.
man LOVE these nites, makes everything good I tell ya.
Good call Andy Rose!! My sentiments exactly.
Looks like the people in L’ville finally realized it was snowing and issued a short term forcast.
Been snowing pretty good in Winchester. Cars and rooftops have a nice fluffy coating and the grass is now turning white as well. Most importantly I was able to make my first snowball of the season.
Flurries have stopped for the moment here in Versailles.
NWS website has shown this all night for Lexington:
Tonight: A 20 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 23. West wind between 8 and 11 mph.
Hi Michael!
That was just updated as of a little after 8pm.
Hey just wanted to tell everyon that it has been snowing pretty good at my house in Morehead. Already have a dusting on the ground.. Looks like we may have a school delay tomorrow if this keeps up. Its just Nov. and already a possible school delay. WOW!!!
Micheal:
That’s being disingenuous… They only put the 20% snow chance in at 8pm update…
been getting those big fluffy flakes down here along the border, mostly flurries so far,but i’m hoping for more…
Pam, dont be rubbing it in..lol…its been like pulling teeth today just to get flurries down here…:(
As of 9:30pm, there are a few flakes on my front porch (Laurel Co)….emphasis on the word ‘few.’ LOL!
Flakes are falling here at my house in Clay County right now. It sure is great to be seeing them fall from the sky. I got home a little after 9 and my deck had a dusting on it.
The ground is completely white here in Prestonsburg and the snow continues to fall. I’d like to see this last all night and surprise a few people with a couple of inches. I will update if anything further happens.
