There Is Snow Nearby...

Yes, it's been snowing nicely in areas south and west of Kentucky, primarily. Accumulations of up to 5" has been reported in parts of Tennessee, Missouri, and Arkansas.

However, even within our region, snow is falling. Evansville and Vincennes among them.

I'm still expecting some snow showers later this evening in Louisville. Not much accumulation is expected. Still, would be a nice scene, though.

Looking at trends several days out, models are trying to 'warm' the next system. The one after that may offer a chance. However, the NAO and the AO ensembles are forecasting positive values and a progressively negative PNA.

That means colder readings out west, milder air comes into the midwest, and the storm track goes west and north of Kentucky toward the Great Lakes. That generally translates to rain instead of snow for us. Hopefully, the models and teleconnection signals will 'cool' off over the next few days.
