Good evening, everyone. Our weekend is off and running on a cold and flakey note, but much better weather is on the way for the weekend and next week. As a matter of fact, the pattern to start March is looking really nice.

Flurries and snow showers have been flying across the region today and a few more will fly into the evening. I can’t rule out a rooftop duster for some areas, but this isn’t a big deal. Here are your flake finding radars…

A mix of sun and clouds will be noted on Saturday with highs in the 40s.

Clouds will thicken across southern Kentucky as a Tennessee Valley system zips eastward. Can this throw a little rain or snow into the south and southeast? Maybe. The GFS likes the idea…

The EURO says this stays just to the south of the border…

Either way, this works in and out very quickly by Sunday morning. Areas to the north make a run toward 50 while the south may stay chillier because of clouds from that system.

Temps rebound into the 50s on the final day of February and may make a run at 60 for the first day of March…

Temps remain mild but may come back a few degrees in the north and east as a system passes by to our north. That keeps our skies dry and windy.

Temps really take off late next week into the weekend and will likely make a run at 70…

That’s ahead of our next chance for rain and thunderstorms arriving at some point during the first weekend in March. This is likely to kick off another super active setup.

Enjoy the rest of the day and take care.
