Sunday, January 11

A potentially robust band of snow showers is expected to develop later tonight, then move across eastern Kentucky as a cold front pushes into the area. This frontal passage will drop temperatures to below freezing in most locations by dawn Sunday. Brief visibility reductions and light accumulations will be possible within any squall-like snow showers that develop. The risk for gusty snow showers and/or snow squalls continues into Sunday afternoon, before subsiding from west to east by evening. Those traveling late tonight and on Sunday should be prepared for sudden visibility reductions and potentially slick elevated surfaces like bridges and overpasses as winter weather returns to the the region.

Scattered snow showers are expected Sunday morning along and behind a cold front. Temperatures are forecast to drop below freezing through the early to mid-morning hours behind this cold front. A few of these snow showers could be heavier, causing a rapid drop in visibility and a quick coating on roads. It will also be quite blustery, with winds from the northwest gusting to around 30 mph. The winds will also help limit visibility in snow, creating briefly difficult travel conditions. Elevated surfaces like bridges and overpasses will likely become slick earlier. Anyone traveling Sunday morning should be prepared for sudden visibility changes and potentially slick road surfaces. Overall, snow accumulations will be light (half inch or less) and quite localized in nature. Not everyone will see a dusting of snow.

Snow is expected across the area late tonight into early Sunday morning. Some light accumulations are possible. With temperatures falling, and reduced visibilities in the snow, travel conditions may become difficult. Additional snow showers are expected during the morning and early afternoon. As snow showers move through, quick bursts of snow will reduce visibility and result in light snow accumulations which may cover roadways. If traveling, allow extra time, and prepare for changes in driving conditions.
