Church is over at noon in Grant County. Looks like we should be good to go?

You should be ok but the weather looks to go down hill real fast after 1 pm.

Thanks nWo - really appreciate your weather threads! Hoping to be home in NKY before this starts Sunday

Question: My daughter is in NKY now and needs to head back to Lexington sometime on Sunday. What's her best traveled window? What's your advice for when she should hit the road? Thanks!

I think she needs to leave at least by early afternoon around 12-1. The weather looks to go down hill from that time period.

@hoops5 You might want to let her know she needs to leave early in the morning. A Winter Storm Warning has just been issued for the Lexington area starting around 10 am. Looks like the storm may come in a little early but the main snow threat is still like I said last night.

I'm waiting for the 1200z release of date then I'll post my updated forecast soon after.

A few inches of snow to start the week and 60 degrees by Friday.

Here's the latest forecast totals I see.

 

For WKY

 

1-3" totals could be lower because of the possible freezing rain/ice overnight. Possible up to .25" in some parts. This could cause power outages.

 

For the rest of Kentucky I'm seeing 3-5" mainly south of I-64.

North of I-64 2-4".

 

Parts of Kentucky from around Somerset, Mt. Vernon, Corbin, Manchester, Barbourville. 4-6"

There also seems to be another area of 4-6" in the Salyersville, Paintsville, Prestonsburg, Pikeville area.

 

The Ashland area 1-3".

 

I'll post another update later this evening.

The same to you and yours

@hoops5 Just to let you know the road crews in the NKY area are already out patrolling the highways. Not really treating any roads as of yet. Other county road crews are on standby towards Lexington.

We may see some periods of rain tomorrow evening before it turns back to snow. But there now seems to be another system heading our way for the Tuesday/Wednesday time period. For now it looks like it will effect mostly northern and eastern Kentucky. I'll be watching it.

 

Also the warm up by the end of the week looks to be short lived before the cold returns. Winter is not through yet.

Coming down in Bellevue/Newport at very nice clip now.......used my leave blower to clear the snow. Been going out every 30 minutes for the past hour and a half and it works like a charm. If you let it get go to long a leave blower is useless.

 

I'm pretty anal about my driveway, sidewalk, steps, & cars being COMPLETELY cleared. When the snow stops falling it looks like the snow avoided falling on my property. :lol2:
