Good afternoon, everyone. It’s an ugly day out there as we get set for another big blast of winter blowing in tonight and Sunday. This brings in a few to several inches of snow to areas of the state with bitterly cold air crashing in behind it.

I don’t have a lot of time for this update, so let’s get into it.

A Winter Weather Advisory is out for most of central and eastern Kentucky…

That should include northern Kentucky and go as far west as Interstate 65. They should also be ready to upgrade parts of eastern Kentucky into West Virginia to a Winter Storm Warning as snowfall totals of 4″ possible in a few spots.

My snowfall forecast rolls on…

The GFS now matches my forecast pretty darn well…

The Canadian Models had been looking similar to the GFS and they still do for the most part, but they are down a bit in totals from prior runs…

The NAM continues to be choppy…

The EURO really beefed up totals compared to earlier runs…

Regardless, there’s no model saying the Winter Weather Advisory shouldn’t include northern Kentucky and areas farther west. Not a single model suggests those areas are good to go.

With gusty winds settling in, blowing snow may become an issue later Sunday and Sunday night.

That gusty wind turns brutally cold with wind chills well below zero…

Extreme Cold Warnings will likely go up soon.

I will have additional updates later in the day so check back. Until that time, here are your Kentucky Weather Radars…

Enjoy the day and take care.
