Good afternoon, everyone. While the Groundhog only does his or her thing once a year, Kentucky Weather Center is here each and every day for you weather weenies. Take that, ya furry forecasting animal! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Areas of light snow and flurries are out there today, mainly impacting the north and northeast. That kicks off our Winter Weather Breakdown…<\/p>\n

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

I’ll be updating the Call For Snowfall later today on WKYT-TV and WKYT+ starting at 4pm. Here’s what the First Call looks like…<\/p>\n

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

The morning model runs are a touch farther south and southeast with the NAM bringing the heaviest snows mainly south of the Ohio River…<\/p>\n

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

The Canadian is as well, but it’s showing two different stripes of decent snow. The model has almost a secondary low that develops and puts down snow early Wednesday in the southeast…<\/p>\n

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

The GFS started with the best snows way up in Ohio and Indiana, but it’s sinking south and southeast…<\/p>\n

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

Cold air continues behind this system with wind chills threatening to hit zero again Wednesday night and early Thursday…<\/p>\n

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

Updates come your way later today. I\u2019ll also have updates on my\u00a0Meteorologist Chris Bailey Facebook Page<\/a><\/p>\n

Until then, here are your tracking tools for the day\u2026<\/p>\n
