Weekend winter storm: location or amount still in question

The National Weather Service in Paducah is watching the potential for snow this weekend, but the amount or location is only beginning to come into focus.

The unanswered questions are still how much snow, and where the heaviest snow will track. Even the timing of the arrival of the parent storm is still unclear. That kind of "accuracy" has to wait until the storm is about 48 hours away from its arrival.

As of Tuesday afternoon, Weather Service meteorologists report that western Kentucky's chance of receiving four inches of snow is rising above 50 percent. The chances of getting at least an inch of snow is 60 to 70 percent so far.

The window of how long snow will continue to fall is also still not clear, but the main body of snow is currently forecast to fall on Saturday.

After the snow, Arctic air will arrive. Temperatures are likely to run about 20 degrees below normal for Friday through at least Monday. That would put high temperatures in the teens to low 20s with wind chill readings falling into the single digits above and below zero.
