Good evening, folks. Our winter storm is moving in and I have you all set up to do some tracking in a bit. In the overall scheme of things, I have no real changes to my thoughts with the first round of snow moving in for tonight and early Saturday.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the current snowfall forecast through Saturday morning…<\/p>\n

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

The current Winter Weather Alerts…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The forecast for Saturday through Sunday still appears to feature accumulating snow in the north with rain for much of the southern half of the state. That snow line may dip into the Interstate 64 corridor Saturday evening and night and that’s something to watch for…<\/p>\n

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

A lighter brand of snow and rain will be with us later Sunday into Sunday, but I can’t rule out some light accumulations…<\/p>\n

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

I know we have a winter storm bearing down on the region, but I do want to talk briefly about how this is the beginning of a major winter period for our region and much of the country. After a little break in the action later next week. another storm may threaten the region next weekend…<\/p>\n

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

The Ensembles over the next two weeks (Including this weekend)…<\/p>\n

GFS<\/p>\n

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

Euro Control<\/p>\n

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

Check out the cold…<\/p>\n

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

Remember those analogs for the winter forecast? All of this is showing up right on cue.<\/p>\n

I will have the latest snow map on WKYT-TV tonight at 11 and will have another update on KWC late tonight. Until then, I have you all set to track the winter weather…<\/p>\n
