Keep that in mind.<\/p>\n<p>Temps likely jump for a brief period to start the upcoming weekend as arctic air pushes back in during the weekend and early next week. The initial front will likely be a rain to snow scenario then we focus on this boundary becoming active with waves of low pressure developing along it. Those would likely throw winter precipitation into our region next week.<\/p>\n<p>The models will flip around with how they handle all this, but that&#8217;s to be expected from this range and when we&#8217;re dealing with such an extreme looking pattern.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the latest GFS with for the weekend into early the following week&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/GFS-29.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-69107\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/GFS-29.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"984\" height=\"808\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Again, don&#8217;t ride with any one model solution.
