Good Wednesday evening gang. As we watch showers and thunderstorms work in from the west.. I wanted to talk a little more about next week. The models continue to advertise a big time shot of cold air across the eastern half of the country. How it all happens changes from run to run.
I took a look at today’s run of the European Model and the upper air reminded me of a pattern from 18 years ago…
There are some key differences there as the 1993 setup had a deeper and colder trough and was about two weeks later into the month. Still… it’s not a horrible match.
Regardless, I want to stress just how hard it is to get snow around here in October. This is all just eye candy and for fun right now, so let’s not get too carried away. It certainly is making for some interesting forecasting and has my attention. That’s saying something for this early in the year. ![]()
I will have a full update later tonight. Until then… track some rain in from the west…
Take care.

I feel all the winter weather juices starting to surge throughout my body!! Bring on the change of seasons!!
I remember bow hunting that Halloween morning in 1993. When first light came it was one of the nicest snow scenes I have ever seen. It was a wet, sticky snow that stuck to everything. Trees, limbs, the leaves. It was like a Thomas Kinkade painting.
Chris…you tease you!;) Looks interesting, for sure. I do remember some flurries on Halloween a few years back…..
I wonder if the haunted snow dome will return?
i wonder if this will be the year lexington finally gets a blizzard. everywhere in the state pretty much has. i think even bowling green got a whopper of a snowstorm in jan or feb 2010…i know friends in nearby clarksville told me they got hammered. and paducah got 14” back in dec. 2004. so what i am saying is even traditionally less snowy parts of KY have gotten hit, but Lexington keeps getting missed often but just 25-40 miles.
