Good Wednesday, everyone. Severe Thunderstorms rumbled across the state on Tuesday, causing damage to several areas. Now, it’s back to talking about how Old Man Winter will not go away. Our system rolling in for the start of the weekend continues to look very interesting and has a chance to bring a rare April winter storm to our region.

In the near-term, it’s a MUCH colder day with a lot of the region in the 40s for highs. There’s even the chance for a few flakes to fly very early this morning…

From here, let’s start to focus more on a developing storm system moving in late Friday into early Saturday. This has the potential to bring heavy rain and heavy snow our way. Here’s the GFS…

As you can see, that’s a lower Ohio Valley winter storm. The snow forecast from the model…

That’s only a model run, folks, but the models have been showing the potential for accumulating snows for several days now.

The NAM only goes through Friday night, but is also on board…

Here’s the snow map from just that time period…

Both the NAM and GFS are suggesting the potential for historic April snows setting up somewhere across the bluegrass state. The Canadian also has a healthy hit…

The new European Model drops a snow bomb across our region..

Just… Wow. Of course, nothing is set in stone, with much of the snow threat depending on the track of the low. Regardless, to be talking about such a winter threat late in the first week of April is pretty incredible. Speaking of “threats”… There’s a real chance we upgrade this one.

Also, there’s another system that tries to dive in behind this one by late Sunday or Monday. That may also bring some winter weather our way.

I will update things later today, so check back. Make it a good one and take care.
