The National Weather Service has issued a Special Weather Statement regarding gusty winds today and light snow tonight around the area:
A large and potent early winter storm system will be moving through the northern Ohio Valley today. As it passes by to our north, it will bring strong and gusty south to southwest winds to eastern Kentucky with the direction becoming more westerly during the afternoon following the passage of a cold front. With this, wind gusts of 30 to 35 mph are expected with locally higher gusts possible. This is enough to blow around lawn displays, garbage cans, and make for difficult driving of higher profile vehicles.
Behind the cold front rain showers will flip to snow and continue overnight. Accumulations should generally be on the order of a dusting to one half inch. However, localized heavier snow showers or even a brief squall cannot be ruled out, dropping an isolated quick inch or two. Any heavier activity is more likely to occur over the Big Sandy River Basin and also north of the Mountain Parkway. Where heavier snowfall occurs, slippery spots are possible especially on bridges, overpasses, and along shaded roadways.
