Good Friday, folks. We’ve made it to the end of the week and we have a half and half weather weekend kicking off. The first part looks good, but the second part is when things get active. A strong low pressure will roll toward the state during this time and will bring a lot of rain with it. That may cause some issues as we kick off a very busy setup.<\/p>\n

Before we get into that, let’s harken back to 5 years ago when a shutdown snowstorm was raging across the state:\u00a02016 Snowstorm<\/a> . That was the third major snowstorm within a year across Kentucky in what was one of the more extreme winter weather patterns in recorded history. Many seem to conveniently forget about this period when talking about how “it never snows around here”.\u00a0 😜<\/p>\n

The weather is much calmer out there today and that continues into Saturday, so get out and take advantage of it.<\/p>\n

A strong storm system will then roll our way from late Sunday through early Tuesday and this will likely bring heavy rain to much of the state. Watch how the low moves right over us…<\/p>\n

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

The potential for several inches of rain is there and this could cause some issues before all is said and done. The GFS has some big time totals…<\/p>\n

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

Most of that falls Sunday night and Monday.<\/p>\n

The Canadian is a little farther north…<\/p>\n

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

That matches up well with the EURO placement, but amounts are a little lighter…<\/p>\n

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

The Icon also has a swath of significant rainfall and is farthest south…<\/p>\n

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

The next system follows that up by late Wednesday and Thursday of next week and has a better chance to produce winter weather…<\/p>\n

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

This is a very active setup that’s likely to carry us through the rest of winter and into spring. Looking way down the road at the European Weeklies through the first week of March, we can see this active setup. Look at the above normal precipitation numbers…<\/p>\n

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

The Control Run is even wetter…<\/p>\n

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

This is a pattern that will likely threaten our region with heavy rains AND heavy snows during this time. The track of the low on individual systems will determine how that plays out.<\/p>\n

Another update will come your way later today. Have a good one and take care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
