Good Saturday, everyone. Historic winds blasted the bluegrass state on Friday as an historic low pressure rolled through the region. Much better weather blows in for the weekend, but there’s a change toward a winter pattern on the way.<\/p>\n

Before we look ahead, let’s look back at the winds of Friday. Widespread 70mph+ winds showed up across the state with a few spots nearing 80mph. Louisville recorded a 79mph gust while Lexington hit 78mph. Both of those are among the highest wind gusts ever recorded. Lexington had 50mph+ gusts for almost 8 straight hours!<\/p>\n

Check out the top winds from the Kentucky Mesonet sites…<\/p>\n

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

I mentioned early in the week how this storm may challenge lowest pressure records and the storm did just that, setting all-time record lowest pressure readings in Louisville, Bowling Green and Paducah…<\/p>\n

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

Things are much better out there today with highs in the 50s with a mix of sun and clouds. Temps reach 60-65 degrees on Sunday with 70-75 on Monday with a mild wind blowing.<\/p>\n

A few showers or storms will be possible by Tuesday as a cold front drops in. This is ahead of a stronger system arriving by the end of the week into next weekend. This is being pushed by much colder air and the chance for winter weather…<\/p>\n

This is unlocking a MUCH colder than normal pattern into the middle of March. The 51 member EURO Ensembles show this well…<\/p>\n

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

The same model run shows snow chances fairly deep into the south…<\/p>\n

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

The GFS Ensembles are seeing the same thing…<\/p>\n

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

We had spring in winter, so I guess it’s time for winter in spring.<\/p>\n

I will update things later today. Make it a good one and take care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
