Good afternoon everyone. I don’t have a ton of time right now… so let’s go ahead and get down to business about the snows moving in over the next few days.
Extreme southern Kentucky got things started off this morning with an inch or two in several counties. I did have a tweet from someone in Bell county saying they had close to 5″ of fresh snow. Most of the heavy snows stayed south of us just as we expected. Now we await a system moving in from the west that will spread snow from west to east later tonight into Tuesday.
The snow maps look pretty similar to what we had out yesterday. The highest totals with the system tonight through Tuesday night will be across the north with lower totals in the south…
Most of the region is under a Winter Weather Advisory for this event with far northern Kentucky under a Winter Storm Warning. I will get a map of that on later this afternoon once everything is finalized from the folks at the NWS offices.
I have to say I am impressed with the wraparound snows for Wednesday into Thursday… especially in the east and southeast. This will be a high ratio event as very cold temps will be pushing in behind our departing storm. Here is the new forecast…
One a side note… the comments section has been getting a little chippy of late. Let’s play nice as the blog has been through all this before and we have to nip it in the bud before things get too wild and crazy. To use a quote from the movie Old School… “You’ve come a long way since the days of Frank The Tank and we don’t want him coming back.” Oh wait… I remember how well that one worked out…
Do you think KFC is still open?
More updates to follow later today so be sure to check back. Have a great afternoon and take care.

CB, thank you for the continued updates, it is appreciated.
Wonder if they will issue out any warnings for Central Ky earlier than they normally do. Probably will.
Thanks Chris
a nap and a pot of coffee will cure anything…:)
I’ve noticed some snow working back west to east into east tn,and extreme se.ky… and in turn is producing some snow flurries, scattered snow showers in my area of se ky..
looking forward to getting in on some good upslopes!!..:) I’ve been scoring big this season with upslope in my area…
…….
and since brandon down in middlesboro is being a SNOW HOG and got 5″ of snow last night…he’s officially been DENIED any accumulations tonight…LOL..LOL…
So if and when we get any snow, when will it start.. tonight?
u my boy BLUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Wow, I keep getting moderated. Is it something I said? π
So,if and when we get the snow, when will it start…tonight?
Snow totals looking bleaker by the hour, but I’ll take any! π
So when will the snow start, tonight?
I want snow! π Moderate THAT! lol.
Chris, thanks for the update…here in Somerset, it’s cloudy again but no
snow π YET:)
Thank you Chris. We really do appreciate all the work you do for us.
When that “BLUE” shows up on radar around here, it will look glorious!!!!
No changes..S.Lex/Richmond could maybe get 2 inches out of this WEEK long HYPE!
from late tonight until Thursday…..Give me a break–yes, very disappointed,,oh well who knows,
I can’t believe Chris Bailey referred to a Will Ferrell movie! I can’t stand Will Ferrell! I demand that he refer only to Adam Sandler movies! π
Ryan Ponder I know you are on this blog lol! Call your wife please π
found this blog several weeks ago, now it is an addiction! I’m glad your maps cover southeast Ohio. I’m in the grocery business, so the sooner I see a storm in the forecast, the better We can prepare inventory for the rush. Keep up the good work Chris! looks like we snuck into the 3-6 range in new Map. Sweet!!
The (impressive) wrap around snows occur completely out side Ky with the excetion of 3 counties according to Wed-Thur accum map. Now I truly feel like a snow orphan (new word for Bubba G’s dictionary). CHris has truly forgotten is Central KY roots. π

snow filling back WEST from EAST into east TN. and south east ky…getting some snow flurries and dark gray cloudcover again…
looking forward to some awesome upslope snow
Actually, chris grew up in eastern Ky, In the county of Magoffin, so his roots belong to eastern ky…hehehehe
Thanks for the update Chris. It looks very cloudy here in Clay County. I hope the snow starts arriving here soon. The maps from the 12:00 forecast on 18 news showed snow moving into our area around 3:00. LET it SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope their maps were right.
channel 18 ….oh no.now its not going to sow at all
Yea but Central Ky gave him his shot at the big time. π
Speaking of the three counties in the 3-6″ range, I like in Pike and work in Letcher Co. Generally speaking we do see quite a bit more snow comparatively speaking. We’ve still got a good bit of snow left over from the last system, and Pine Mountain (the ridgeline runs down the KY/VA border) will probably have 2′ or better drifts by the time this is all over with. Y’all like snow, you should check it out sometime. π
Sorry for the typo’s…too much caffeine!
the hubs is trying to decide what to drive to work tonight. what time is all this supposed to start in central Ky? should he take the 4wheel drive truck? or could he get by with driving the car?
Just got off the phone with my dad in Brevard NC……He said it had stopped snowing and they got about six inches; they were expecting 12
MJ…….Question……..What do you think of the arctic outbreak coming up and this weekends storm?
Thanks
PS…..I just spent the last hour reading all the comments from the last post….I guess a lot of folks got upset from the snow sandwich.
Thanks for the update
We surely do appreciate everything you do, Chris. Does anyone know when the 2nd wave will hit? π
Well… I’ve remained pretty optimistic about this whole storm since Chris has had Fayette County as getting 2-4 and 1-3 … but considering every other news station, including weather.com has Lexington listed as getting 1-3 total over the whole system, I’m just gonna sit back quietly and except only an inch. This way I’ll be surprised (shocked really) if we get any more than that. But not disappointed if we don’t.
Yeah right… who am I kidding!? I want a foot and I want it now!
I’m so sick of the ‘snowdome’. I want a snow like ’98 when I walked out of my very first Lex. Cath game (as a student I should say) and watched the flurries falling only to wake up the next morning to a foot of snow that gave us the rest of the week off.
And I don’t even get snow days. I just want the snow!
And by “except” I of course mean “expect”… I certainly will not accept only 1 inch π
All I know is there is going to be a good football game on tonight. War Eagle. Let it Snow a foot.
Rachel, you may qualify for exclusive membership in the Darth Bubba friends of the Dark Side. I can feel your anger building from within.
All I know is there is going to be a good football game on tonight. I’ll build me a fire in the basement and chill. War Eagle, hope it snows a foot.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIRQf0S3oD0
Lol… I may! My mother tells me I should just chill out… but I don’t want to chill out I just want it to snow! Is that really too much to ask for?
LOLZ!!! π
Chris,
Do you have any ideal what time the snow will begin tonight in southeastern KY?
well here in the land of the mentally challenged I went outside cause I thought it was starting to snow but it ended up being a big flock of geese that craped on my head!!!!
In Central Kentucky, yes it is. LOL
Who is kidding who? If CB still lived here, he would be a member too π
Rachel, do not worry about the darknesssss. We will give you a niiight liiight π
I am not feeling the snow luv with this event. Please keep in mind CB’s outlook was higher and now the trend of the snow maps and updates are more spread and lighter. Perhaps a lot of hooey and build-up for a few inches of light white stuff.
CB’s map yesterday is truly the Dark Forces map to crushing the pesky rebel Kentucky snow lovers. There has been a disturbance in the force!
I need a drink.
Ruuuuunnnnnn Fooorrrrrest, Ruuuuuunnnn!!!
Well, here is hoping we see more out of the second wave than we did out of the first one! We got light snow for abut half an hour this morning, just enough to get the pavement white, and then it stopped. 1-3 would look pretty good to me right now.
Thanks, Chris. Appreciate you!
Conference call with NWS Jackson. Advising for freezing drizzle first, then snow grains, 2 inches of snow, then wrap around blowing snow for Bath County.
Did you see any other Auburn fans out there? I heard the events were cancelled tonight, but it sounds like the Ducks have already flown all over you.
So when is this snow suppose to start in Central Kentucky? I’m wondering if the kids will go in the AM and then have to get home in it.
Chris I really appreciate all you do on this blog.
That said, it is somewhat misleading when the hype for an upcoming event usually turns out to be mostly for eastern or far eastern Ky. time after time.
what is up with all the geese! i have seen them all stirred up the last couple of days. thousands of them!
This AM, the mets were saying during the morning business travel. The earlier it starts, the more we should get. If we wake up to new snow, we should be on the high end of CB’s map. If this lags into lunch or afternoon, we are going to probably be on the low end of CB’s maps.
oh, and welcome to the dark side Rachel…… we have cookies.
If you could just swing that 3-6 line down about another 100 miles I would appreciate it, thanks.
I am happy to see the blog has taken a comical turn, everybody is friendly and funny, the way it used to be. Frig is full, wood is stocked, car is gassed up, ready for the storm, whatever it brings us. Read all the time but don’t post often, just a little scary sometimes. Love Rolo,RhondaB,Crystal, Char,Tim,Vinny,Bubba,Coffee,Wxman,Andy, and whoever I forgot, all the old-timers. Oh and that Chris Bailey guy, he’s pretty great, too. Thanks Chris
I looked at the NWS forecast at 2pm for Lexington…..It said tomorrow snow likely accum of an inch…..
I’m looking at it now, it says: Tomorrow new snow accum of around three inches. Tomorrow night, new snow accum around an inch…From that point on just 1/2 inch or less…….So I guess at max they expect a little over four inches. I guess we will see
Here are some snow times put out by the NWS in Louisville!
LIGHT PRECIP IN THE FORM OF SNOW
WILL OVERSPREAD THE AREA BEGINNING AROUND 6-8Z FROM DUBOIS INDIANA
TO BOWLING GREEN KY…8-10Z AROUND LOUISVILLE…AND 9-11Z AROUND
LEXINGTON.
Ok someone out there, does this mean 9-11pm tonight for Lex area???
What blows my mind, is the difference between Ch. 18 and 27…it is like they are predicting two different events. I will follow CB’s. Thanks!!!!
I’ve kinda given up hope on this weather system, so I want to look ahead, Chris has advertised a chance for a big artic outbreak in mid to late month but this is what the forecast discussion from Jackson says:
A BIT OF A PATTERN CHANGE UPCOMING AS WE HEAD INTO THE WEEKEND.
MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT THE UPPER LEVEL THROUGH OVER THE
EASTERN CONUS WILL FINALLY LIFT OUT WITH ZONAL FLOW SETTING UP
THROUGH A GOOD PORTION OF THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. THIS WILL PROVIDE A
PERIOD OF MILDER WEATHER AS WE HEAD INTO THE END OF THE WEEK AND
ESPECIALLY THIS WEEKEND.
BACKED OFF CONSIDERABLY ON POPS FOR
SATURDAY AS NEXT SHORTWAVE TROUGH REMAINS OFF TO OUR WEST. I LIKE
THE IDEA OF A SLOWER PROGRESSION OF THE SYSTEM LATE IN THE WEEKEND
(PER ECMWF)…SO KEPT POPS LOW THROUGH SUNDAY…THEN BROUGHT THE
BEST POPS IN SUNDAY NIGHT WITH THE SYSTEM. THERE IS A WINDOW OF
OPPORTUNITY FOR SOME SNOW AT THE ONSET ON SUNDAY…BUT THE MAJORITY
OF PRECIPITATION THIS TIME AROUND SHOULD FALL IN THE FORM OF RAIN.
WITH ZONAL FLOW…THE WEATHER WILL REMAIN VERY PROGRESSIVE…KEEPING
OUR WEATHER ACTIVE THROUGH THE EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK.
FORTUNATELY…WE SHOULD REMAIN MUCH MILDER…SETTING UP THE PRIMARY
PRECIPITATION THREAT AS RAIN. WE MAY HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR A
MORE SIGNIFICANT PRECIPITATION EVENT LATER NEXT WEEK…GIVEN THE
MILDER WEATHER AND ACTIVE STORM TRACK.
Just saying it doesn’t sound as promising down the road for winter lovers.
No, that’s zulu time. I believe that means 3-5 a.m. for Lex.
What the… Why is it in Zulu time????
weekend system looking like rain and at best mix.
u want to laugh go to youtube and watch JIM BREUER ALCoHOL skit it a hoot.
My dad is in North Georgia, Ringgold, and he measured 8 1/2″ at his house.
Susan you were always superwoman,glad to hear from you.To bad the blog party never occurred it would have been interesting.On the food I will stop and buy the food you would not want my cooking lol,I breathe a little easier after each meal not so for my hubby.I will bring a safe bucket of Kfc orginal crispy and roasted and toasted.Rolo what would you bring???
Chris said for tommorrow on Wsaz that area wide should get the snow tomorrow.It looked like most of Ky.
Dew point is 13 now in Louisville. Needs to rise to 25 in the next six hours or it going to delay the snow start time = Less snow.
I’m a retired meteorologist from South Carolina but was born true blue and moved back to Lexington just recently and really enjoy this blog. Looking at setup I’m thinking a general 2-3″ here in Lexington.
Listen I’m from McCreary County and i want the 3″-6″ so bring that to me i would like it if the next time you posted you posted something about my region and say McCreary County in it please Chris…Your THE BEST!!!!!
Hi, I’m 11 years old and I love to learn about weather!!!

lol — YES! I love cookies π
great. you can a lot from chris and this site!
As someone who was raised in NYC, lived in Buffalo NY, and then had to endure 20 years of screwy TX weather, and 6 more of MEMPHIS— I deserve a BIG SNOW!! I had such high hopes with this storm..but nooooooooooooo, of COURSE we are only getting 1-3 inches, because I AM HERE, thats why!!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Ok. I’m done. π
THANKS!!
