Good evening, everyone. Gloomy weather continues across central and eastern Kentucky as we get set for a pattern change. This change kicks off with some light snow that may stick into parts of the region later this week.
In the short-term, we continue to track rain across the eastern half of the state. This is working from south to north and can be locally heavy at times into the overnight. Here are your radars for the evening…
The upper-level low spins into the region Thursday and Friday and brings a bit of a mix on the front end and areas of light snow from Thursday night through early Saturday. That’s when some light accumulations are very possible. Once again, we find the Canadian with the steady hand…
This system is now mainly within the timeframe of the NAM and it looks rather similar through Friday evening…
The Hi Res NAM doesn’t go out as far, but you can see the light snow pinwheeling in from the northwest Thursday afternoon and evening…
Even the GFS is coming around to seeing this…
Again, this will likely require a First Call For Snowfall map at some point tonight or Wednesday.
A clipper follows this up by New Year’s Eve and Day. Again, the Canadian has been pretty consistent with some light snow and snow showers…
The GFS has this as well, but it’s trying to wrap this up a little more with a second low trying to pop along it…
All this leads us into what’s likely to be a wintry January and February. I’ll get into that later tonight.
Have a good one and take care.
I never give up until Feb/March is over. Especially a few years ago when we had virtually nothing major until Mid Feb! Then we got blasted with a ma-s-s-sive snow…then 3 weeks later in March another ma-s-s-ive snow…and bitter cold. I remember being so sick of snow at that point….so remember, it ain’t over till it’s over.
Hard to refute that! Over the years I’ve went from a “no big snow” critic to just being happy if no big ice. My expectations have devolved.
