Good Tuesday, everybody. Snow showers and flurries will wind down early today, after putting down light accumulations in many areas. We are likely waking up to some cancellations and delays because of the flakes. I’m tracking more snow chances as we close out January and usher in February.

As mentioned, the snow showers and flurries are calming down today, but will still create slick travel at times…

A nice redound in temps moves in for Wednesday, ahead of our next system moving in Thursday into Thursday night. A cold front sweeps in here from the northwest, with rain ahead of it. A weak wave of low pressure develops along the front, with a switch to snow likely.

The GFS is back to showing a slightly better organized setup…

That run of the GFS has a modest snowfall across parts of central and eastern Kentucky…

The Canadian Model is a little slower with the transition from rain to snow…

Moral of the story with the Thursday system… This is a rain to snow setup, but this system is zipping through here pretty quickly. The heavier the precipitation shield, the better the chance for some thumpers to fall from the sky. That heavy precip pulls down cold air in this type of atmosphere. The best chance for that to happen is across the south and southeast.

As of now, I still can’t see this being anything more than a modest snowfall for some.

The fast movement of the Thursday system is due to the quick arrival of our weekend situation. One system likely moves in Saturday night and early Sunday, with another system moving our way late Sunday into Monday.

The European Model actually has the action starting by Saturday afternoon…

It then brings another system in here late Monday…

Here’s the view from the Canadian…

The GFS actually has 3 systems, followed by another one a few days later…

With arctic shots plentiful in the coming few weeks, the GFS Ensembles suggest it may snow all the way to the Gulf again…

I will have your usual updates back and running today, so check back. Make it a good one and take care.
