Good Thursday to one and all. Strong to a few severe storms are rolling across the state today as a potent storm system works into the Ohio Valley. Once the storms blow through, a light accumulation of snow takes center stage for Friday.

Let’s start with the storms before we get to the winter weather.

A few rounds of strong storms will be noted from this morning into the middle of the afternoon. A few of those may be severe with damaging wind the primary player. There’s a low end threat for a few of the storms to spin a little.

Here is today’s Severe Weather Outlook from the Storm Prediction Center…

I’ll have your tracking tools in a bit.

A cold northwest wind kicks on tonight through Friday night with periods of light snow and snow showers likely. Light accumulations are a good bet for much of central and eastern Kentucky, with the far southeast seeing the potential for a few inches or a little more.  My snowfall map from yesterday still stands…

The Lake Michigan connection will be interesting to watch. There could be a band of overachieving light snow wherever that sets up. You can actually see the Lake Michigan impact showing up on the models…

I will have KWC updates through the day, but I leave you with your early Thursday storm tracking toys…
