<\/p>\nGood Tuesday, everyone. Another powerful system is rolling into the region for the next few days, bringing a wintry mess before the threat for flooding. This is the first of two systems on the way between now and the weekend. That weekend system has the chance to produce a few strong to severe storms.<\/p>\n
Clouds will increase today as moisture streams in from the southwest by late afternoon into the evening. This arrives in the form of rain, but with a band of snow and a wintry mix on the northern edge of it. The best chance of seeing this is across the northern half of the state for a few hours this evening before rain takes over.<\/p>\n
I suspect a Winter Weather Advisory will be issued for some…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Some slick travel could be noted for a few hours, so keep that in mind if travelling.<\/p>\n
Heavy rain then takes over tonight and carries us through Wednesday night. Some thunder and lightning will even be possible on Wednesday as things get cranking. Rainfall totals from 1″-3″ will be likely through Thursday morning…<\/p>\n
A Flood Watch is out for much of the region during this time. General flooding and river flooding may develop through early Thursday.<\/p>\n For a quick reference, here’s a rough timeline of how this looks to play out…<\/p>\n After a break in the action Thursday, rain returns Friday as we gear up for another heavy rain event for the weekend. This setup may even through a few strong or severe storms our way…<\/p>\n That could bring another 1″-3″ of rain our way, leading to another flood threat.<\/p>\n One more system will follow that up a few days later, but the pattern appears to be heading for a big change as we close out February and enter March.<\/p>\n We’ve talked about how this pattern has been VERY similar to what we went through last year at this time. The wettest February on record led us into a very cold and snowy March and spring. Mother Nature may try to\u00a0flip the cold weather switch as we head into this March. Check out the first 5 days of the Month from the European Ensembles…<\/p>\n The control is even colder during the same time…<\/p>\n The GFS Ensembles are frigid for much of the country…<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/chris-pic-3.png\")
