Good Thursday to all my fellow weather lovers. Our day is off and running on a soggy note across the bluegrass state as a weak system works through. My attention continues to be more focused on what’s ahead for the weekend as we have a developing storm to contend with. This has the potential to become the first “winter storm threat” of the season.<\/p>\n

Let’s start with what we have going on out there today. Showers will be rather common into the early afternoon hours… especially across the central and east. These rains will slowly diminish and we may try to break out into a partly cloudy sky before the day is over. Temps should range from the low to mid 50s. Don’t forget the radars and current conditions pages up top.<\/p>\n

Friday looks to be a good day with temps in the upper 40s and low 50s with partly sunny skies. Don’t be fooled by this nice looking start to the weekend because things may turn wintry in a hurry by Saturday night and Sunday.<\/p>\n

We have been talking about a potential weekend storm for several days now and all the models are falling in line with a similar solution. That is for a storm to develop across the deep south and lift northeastward into the Carolinas by Sunday. That is usually a great track for getting a decent snowfall around our part of the world.<\/p>\n

The GFS has been very steady with this track for the past few days. Here’s the latest run…<\/p>\n

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

Taken verbatim… that’s rain Saturday evening with a rapid switch to heavy, wet snow Saturday night into Sunday. The GFS Ensembles mean agrees…<\/p>\n

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

The Canadian Model had been showing this storm missing us to the south. That is no longer the case for Saturday evening into Sunday morning…<\/p>\n

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

This is a setup for us to continue to keep a very close eye on. Don’t get caught up on looking at the rain verses snow maps or the thermal profile because the models won’t catch up to all that until Friday or Saturday.<\/p>\n

I will have updates as needed, so check back to see if we have the first upgrade of the winter. Have a great Thursday and take care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
