Good evening, folks. We have a major winter storm set to blast the bluegrass state later this week. This will bring a significant threat for flooding and the potential for an ice storm for parts of the state. This setup is ugly, folks.<\/p>\n

A Winter Storm Watch has already been issued for areas of central and western Kentucky…<\/p>\n

This will be expanded east and I’m highlighting those areas because I don’t want anyone to get a false sense of security. This is not the time for personal biases to come into play for watches to be issued.<\/p>\n

Here’s my area of most concern for enough ice to cause issues…<\/p>\n

That’s a work in progress and I will zero in on the potential later tonight and Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Do NOT sleep on the flooding threat. A general 1″-4″ of rain will show up and this will bring high water issues to the region. We are very likely to have some areas under a Winter Storm Watch and a Flood Watch at the same time.<\/p>\n

The latest models trends show the GFS now coming much farther east with the winter weather…<\/p>\n

The EURO has really had some wild swings of late and has done so all winter. Here’s the current run…<\/p>\n
