Good Thursday and Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Let me begin by saying I’m very thankful for each of you for everything you do for our weather community. We can get a little snippy every now and then, but we can all be thankful for our little weather world. 🙂
This Thanksgiving features clouds rolling back in as a seasonal chill is noted. Temps shouldn’t get out of the low and mid 40s for many. There’s even the chance for a few afternoon or evening showers developing across western Kentucky. Some of this may sneak into central Kentucky by the evening.
Here are your radars to do some tracking…
Clouds and a seasonal chill remain for Black Friday shoppers. Showers look to increase from the west as we go into the evening hours. These showers are ahead of our big weekend storm system that rolls into the plains states, then moves into the Great Lakes and cuts east on Sunday. That low then transfers energy to a coastal low that slowly works northward.
An upper level system works right on top of us from late Sunday into Monday. What does all this mean? Here’s a breakdown…
- Rain kicks in Friday night and comes at us in waves through Saturday night. A few thunderstorms will also be possible during this time.
- Rainfall numbers of 1″-2″ will likely show up.
- Temps on Saturday are rather chilly during the day, then climb during the evening and overnight ahead of a cold front.
- That front moves through Sunday and causes our temps to crash later in the afternoon and evening.
- Winds will be very gusty this weekend and could top 40mph at times.
- Sunday will likely see some sunshine before our system drops in from the northwest late in the afternoon. That will bring rain and snow in here by Sunday evening into Sunday night.
- A strong northwest flow will kick in on Monday with fairly widespread snow showers around. Light accumulations are a good bet across central and eastern Kentucky.
The Euro continues to go toward the Canadian with this…
Here’s the snow map from the Euro
And then we have the GFS…
One of those models is not like the others. Bless it’s heart!
I will have updates later today. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and take care.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
You to Dottie.
At my age I am thankful for being alive and for my family. Everyone have a happy and safe Thanksgiving !
This Winter to come still remains uncertain. I listened to another prediction last evening out of Louisville and they were predicting above normal snowfall for Louisville in the 15-18 inch range along with sleet, freezing rain and the possibility for severe thunderstorms with up and down temperatures throughout the Winter. Sounds interesting, but could be dangerous for some.
Happy Thanksgiving to all my weather friends
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!
