A Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for much of the Bluegrass and eastern Kentucky from 4 to 8 p.m. Wednesday evening. Advisories issued for further eastern Kentucky run through Thursday morning. These areas could see an inch or more of snow late this afternoon and tonight, making for hazardous travel conditions.
Rain is falling across the entire area this morning with temperatures near 40 degrees. Temperatures will drop this afternoon as the colder part of the storm system moves into our area. Along with our soggy weather, strong winds gusting up to 30mph will make it feel even colder in the first half of the day.
By 4 to 5 p.m. rain will begin to switch over to snow. While accumulations won't go much higher than an inch, hazardous travel conditions will be possible late this afternoon and into the evening.
Light snow will continue for some late tonight into Thursday morning as temps drop into the mid 20's.
By Thursday afternoon, we will dry out with afternoon highs in the mid 30s. Winds will be lighter, out of the northwest 5-10 mph.
