Good Sunday to one and all. It’s another blast of winter surging back into the region today with snow showers and bitterly cold wind chills taking center stage. At the same time, a massive blizzard is hitting the east coast.<\/p>\n

The setup today features rounds of snow showers and flurries targeting the eastern half of the state with light accumulations. This action continues tonight into the day on Monday. For that reason, a Winter Weather Advisory rolls on across southeastern Kentucky…<\/p>\n

\"Watches\"<\/p>\n

A few inches of snow will target those areas, with more along the high ground of the Virginia border counties. The rest of central and eastern Kentucky can see coatings up to 1″ of snow, especially after sunset today.<\/p>\n

You can see all these snow showers and the few squalls on the HRRR Future Radar…<\/p>\n

Wind chills today through Tuesday are wicked and a slap in the face after the recent 70 degree temps. Wind chills in the singles are likely tonight and early Monday. This animation shwos the wind chills from this morning through Monday morning…<\/p>\n

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

A monster of a blizzard is developing today and will absolutely crush areas from the Mid-Atlantic to New England. This system will pack hurricane force wind gusts and more than 2 feet of snow for many areas.<\/p>\n

The look of the future radar is astounding…<\/p>\n

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

Peak wind gusts push 75mph along the coast with 90mph gusts over the ocean…<\/p>\n

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

The snowfall numbers…<\/p>\n

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

Imagine the drifts from that much snow with winds like that. This is a life-threatening storm that will paralyze one of the highest population centers on earth. Just incredible.<\/p>\n

Back here in Kentucky, the cold eases Tuesday with a milder mid-week wind ahead of a potent system dropping in by Thursday…<\/p>\n

Another update comes 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
