Good evening, folks. Heavy rain is changing to a mix and snow from west to east as temps crash behind a cold front. This system continues to be fairly well behaved, but the precip Is showing signs of slowing down a little. That may give areas of central and eastern Kentucky a little shot at snow.<\/p>\n

I really have no changed to my forecast with coatings up to 2″ amounts in some areas. The Weather Prediction Center continues to give a slight risk for 4″ snows into much of central and eastern Kentucky tonight…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

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

That sets up a family feud within the NOAA family. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a slight risk of 4″ snows from the WPC, while the local NWS offices don’t even have a Winter Weather Advisory.<\/p>\n

Obviously, I’m kind of in the middle and do expect an impact on travel tonight with a freeze up and a coating to 2″ of snow on top of it. As we have seen many times before, it doesn’t take much around here to cause issues.<\/p>\n

A northwest flow develops behind our snow band early Thursday and that may keep some snow showers and flurries going through the morning hours. After a break in the afternoon, an arctic front drops in Thursday evening with a band of light snow and snow showers. That can also cause a few issues.<\/p>\n

Temps by Friday morning hit the single digits for some…<\/p>\n

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

Wind chills will be below zero during this time in many areas.<\/p>\n

A couple more light snow systems work across the region this weekend. The one with the most potential is Saturday night and Sunday.<\/p>\n

The mother load of bitterly cold air then drops into the country early next week. This may cause a healthy band of snow to develop in our region, with the majority of it falling in the arctic air behind another front Monday night and Tuesday…<\/p>\n

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

Check out the morning lows behind that…<\/p>\n

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

Ouch!<\/p>\n

I leave you with your Wednesday evening tracking toys…<\/p>\n
