Heavy rain and thunderstorms drenched many areas of the bluegrass state on Saturday, setting rainfall records along the way. We are getting a nice break from the rain today, but Old Man Winter is ready to take control of the pattern again as we head into the new week. Several snow chances\u00a0are on the weather menu, including the potential for a late week winter storm impact.<\/p>\n<p>Morning showers and storms move way, leaving a mostly sunny sky for many. Winds will be gusty with many thermometers topping out in the 60s. Winds will continue to be rather gusty, but the day looks pretty good in the overall scheme of things.<\/p>\n<p>Another cold front drops in here on Monday and will knock our temps down quickly from northwest to southeast. A shower or two is possible as our front moves through, with some flakes flying by Monday night. The setup for Tuesday and Wednesday will feature some light snow, snow showers, and snow flurries for much of the region. There is an increasing threat for a light snowfall for many areas.
