This will shut down areas of the deep south from Texas to the Carolinas. How strong does this low get and where does it track? How much interaction does it have with a northern stream system dropping into our region? The answers to those questions will determine how much snow we get here in Kentucky.<\/p>\n<p>The GFS continues to show a moderate impact snowfall of several inches&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/GFS-17.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-68894\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/GFS-17.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"984\" height=\"808\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Canadian Model is similar&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Canadian-12.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-68893\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Canadian-12.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"984\" height=\"808\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This storm is getting within the range of short-range models like the NAM and Short Range Canadian.
