Good evening, folks. Old Man Winter is about to make a triumphant return to the bluegrass state over the next several days. This comes with arctic air and our first widespread snowfall from Thursday into Friday.<\/p>\n

It’s our first “First Call For Snowfall” of the season…<\/p>\n

\"special-2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For those of you not familiar with how I do things, I put out a first call, then update it and then throw out the “Final Call For Snowfall” before the event starts.<\/p>\n

I will start by saying, this looks like an overachiever and I may be underdone in a few spots. Areas of eastern and southeastern Kentucky can see some local 4″ amounts. The GFS shows this well…<\/p>\n

\"gfs-snow\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Some of the individual members of the GFS Ensembles are also showing a bigger event…<\/p>\n

\"gfs-snow-2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The European Ensembles are made up of 51 different members. Here’s the average snowfall from those 51 different runs…<\/p>\n

\"euro\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s pretty healthy to see from that many different runs.<\/p>\n

The Hi Res NAM also shows some healthy totals, but is likely way underdone in the southeast…<\/p>\n

\"nam\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Slick travel is likely to develop Thursday and carry us into Friday as arctic cold temperatures take full control.<\/p>\n

The next system is still forecast to just brush southeastern Kentucky, but there is still some wiggle room on the models with this one.<\/p>\n

Overnight lows this weekend into Monday can drop into the single digits for much of the state.<\/p>\n

I will have a new call for snowfall on WKYT-TV tonight at 11 and on the blog with my late night update.<\/p>\n

Enjoy the evening and take care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
