Our day is starting out on a Frigid note, but things look to end pretty good with some sun and 30s for many. As we head into the final weekend of January, a big storm system is rolling our way and looks to bring a wintry mess by Saturday evening for some. This will be followed by a precip flip flop that features rain to snow to close out the month and begin February.<\/p>\n<p>Temps this morning are deep into the low teens for many and a few single digits may even show up in the colder valleys.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a breakdown of the weekend\/early week setup :<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rain moves into western Kentucky Saturday and works eastward during the afternoon and evening. As this moves into central and eastern Kentucky, it may very well go over to a period of snow or a wintry mix.<\/li>\n<li>Areas of northern and northeastern Kentucky have the best chance of seeing accumulating snow, especially areas near Covington.<\/li>\n<li>How far south can we get this snow or mix to start? That&#8217;s the question of the day.<\/li>\n<li>All areas go over to rain quickly from southwest to northeast Sunday as low pressure works in and weakens.<\/li>\n<li>Once this low weakens and moves just to our east, temps crash quickly with snow wrapping back in here Sunday night.<\/li>\n<li>Periods of snow, snow showers and squalls will then be common Monday through early Tuesday for much of central and eastern Kentucky. Accumulations are likely during this time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The EURO continues to be the most aggressive model with the cold on Saturday, leading to a farther south starting band of snow. Here&#8217;s the model for the duration of the event through Tuesday&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/EURO-47.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-47232\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/EURO-47.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"984\" height=\"808\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the Euro snowfall forecast just through Sunday afternoon&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/EURO-35.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-47231\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/EURO-35.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"966\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/EURO-35.png 966w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/EURO-35-300x236.png 300w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/EURO-35-768x604.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 966px) 100vw, 966px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Canadian Model has a similar overall look&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Canadian-50.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-47229\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Canadian-50.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"984\" height=\"808\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can see the really good looking wraparound snows on both models for Sunday night through Tuesday morning, but I&#8217;m using the snowfall maps to only focus on the front end potential.
