<\/p>\nGood afternoon, everyone. We have snow showers and squalls working across the region causing all kinds of travel issues. This action continues to develop on a strong northwesterly wind that’s keeping temps and wind chill numbers in the frigid range.<\/p>\n
A Winter Weather Advisory is out for many areas of central and eastern Kentucky, but this has been piecemealed together by our NWS offices, largely after the fact. I’ve said this for years and years, but our NWS offices have got to totally revamp the winter weather program. It’s simply not working and it’s having a negative impact on the lives of people across our region. (cue the trolls to come after me on twitter on in the comments section)<\/p>\n
Here’s the current advisory map…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The snow map I put out on Sunday looks to be in good shape…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Snow showers and flurries will hold tonight into eastern and southeastern Kentucky.<\/p>\n
The focus after this then shifts to a very windy and very wet setup from late this week through early next week. Three systems roll through here:<\/p>\n
System 1 arrives Thursday with light rain that may begin as some sleet. This brings rain across the region Thursday night and Friday.<\/p>\n
System 2 is a very strong storm wrapping up and working across the Ohio Valley Friday night into Saturday. This will bring very heavy rainfall and high winds that can gust to 50mph. A few strong storms will also be possible.<\/p>\n
System 3 arrives Monday into Tuesday with more rain and gusty winds. Much colder air crashes in behind it with some snow showers possible.<\/p>\n
You can see all three systems showing up on the models…<\/p>\n
