<\/p>\nGood evening, folks. A developing winter storm is rolling our way and is going to bring a wide variety of weather our way. This is a high impact storm that can cause local high water issues and bring icy and snow covered roads. Because of the high impact and the potential for some 4″+ snows to show up, let’s roll with a Winter Storm Threat.<\/p>\n
A Winter Weather Advisory is already out for much of the state…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There’s a real chance to get some counties upgraded to a full blown Winter Storm Warning later tonight into Saturday.<\/p>\n
A few fresh thoughts:<\/p>\n
Here’s the First Call For Snowfall…<\/p>\n
Those numbers are likely to go up with the next update tonight on WKYT-TV at 11.<\/p>\n The computer runs are still bouncing around a bit as they try to figure out the low pressure situation with this setup. The European Model has been the one consistent model in terms of track and precipitation amounts. Here’s the latest snow map from that run…<\/p>\n The Hi Res NAM is still jumping around with the low…<\/p>\n But, it’s back to producing a solid swath of snow…<\/p>\n The regular NAM is still putting too much emphasis on the lead low, but has some hefty totals for some…<\/p>\n The GFS is farther south than earlier runs and is trying to pop a second area of snow in the southeast…<\/p>\n The new version of the GFS offers snow for everyone…<\/p>\n I will update all this later tonight.<\/p>\n Looking farther down the road, another arctic front moves by Wednesday with a wave of low pressure along it. That’s likely to bring another round of winter weather our way. That’s another one with some decent potential…<\/p>\n After that comes arctic air with yet another storm threat next weekend. That one has a very interesting look to it with some parallels to the late 70s. The temperatures showing up next weekend are as cold as I’ve ever seen on medium range computer forecast models…<\/p>\n European Model…<\/p>\n GFS<\/p>\n Snow lovers should frame this 10 day snow map from the European Model…<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Chris-3.png\")
