Very active weather and dangerous cold forecast for the next
week...
A very strong storm system will move through the region Friday.
Very strong winds are expected and a wind advisory has been issued
for the entire region for 40-50 mph wind gusts. Stronger winds
are possible. Widespread rain may lead to localized flooding in
areas where thunderstorms form with up to 2 inches of rain
possible in those areas. Severe thunderstorms are not currently
expected but there is a small potential over the southern
Pennyrile region of Kentucky Friday morning. A change to sleet and
snow is forecast at the end of the day but accumulations are
still not anticipated.
If temperatures do not rise above freezing Saturday it is expected
to mark the first of 5 to 6 days where temperatures will not rise
above freezing. Lows Saturday through Tuesday night are forecast
to fall into or near the single digits. Below zero wind chills
are likely most of Monday and Tuesday. This extended cold snap
will be dangerous to those without adequate shelter and will
likely challenge plumbing and other cold-sensitive
infrastructure.
Accumulating snow remains possible Monday but forecast amounts
have trended a little lower, and will remain subject to change for
the next few days as more data becomes available.
