The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm warning for the area from noon today-7am Tuesday.
Rain this morning will end gradually in a period of light freezing rain around noon. A cold front with significantly colder temps behind it will contribute to a flash freeze of rain on grass and untreated roadways.
The main event will be tonight and into Tuesday morning. A secondary storm will approach, and bring a mixed bag of precipitation into the area. Here is my opinion on what will happen for this storm...
- There will be a band of heavier snow that sets up within 50 miles of the Ohio River on either side. My current thought is that it will set up and effect the counties bordering the Ohio River in Indiana and Kentucky. Thus, I expect these areas to pick up 2-4 inches of snow tonight-Tuesday morning. Also, you will see a small coating of freezing rain in this area, with accumulations less than .1".
- North of this area in southern Indiana and south of this area in northcentral Kentucky, expect freezing rain accumulations around .1", and snow amounts to be anywhere from 1-3 inches.
- Along and south of a line from Leitchfield to E'town to Bardstown, you will likely see up to .25" inch of ice.
This is my opinion, but as I have said before, there are many others out there because of the possibility of the system straying from it's projected path. However, this is my prediction, and as always, it is subject to change! :)
Next post will be between 1-2pm...
