Thursday to Thursday

1. Is lightning in the forecast? Yes. Lightning is possible Thursday night into Friday.

2. Are severe thunderstorms in the forecast? Low risk. A low risk over KY/TN Friday morning/afternoon. Damaging wind is the concern.

3. Is flash flooding in the forecast? Possible. A few areas may see low land flooding Friday. Creeks may rise. Locally heavy rain. Some ditches may flood which would lead to road flooding. Avoid flooded roadways.

4. Will the heat index exceed 100 degrees? No.

5. Will the wind chill dip below 10 degrees? Yes. Friday night into next Wednesday.

6. Is measurable snow and/or sleet in the forecast? Yes. Light snow accumulation is possible Friday afternoon and night. This could lead to icy roads. A flash freeze is possible. Accumulation of snow would be light, but since it will be so cold it would not take much to cause issues. Not overly concerned, but I would monitor radars and temperatures.

Snow is likely Sunday into Monday (centered on late Sunday into Monday morning). I will need to fine tune the exact time of the snows arrival. The chances for snow will be higher across the southern half of the region vs the north. Less snow north. More snow south.

7. Is freezing rain/ice in the forecast? Freezing rain is unlikely.
Freezing rain is rain that falls and instantly freezes on objects such as trees and power lines

Fire weather risk level.

Thursday: 4. Low risk.
Thursday night. 4. Low risk.
Friday: 3. Very low risk.
Friday night: 3. Very low risk.

Fire Weather Discussion

Temperatures will be above normal today and tonight ahead of an approaching weather system. It will become very windy late tonight into Friday as rain spreads from west to east. Winds gusting from 40 to possibly 50 mph are expected Friday into Friday evening as a cold front moves through our region. A few thunderstorms are possible late tonight and Friday morning, then as colder air filters into our region, a wintry mix or change over to light snow is possible before precipitation comes to an end Friday afternoon into Friday evening.

A Haines Index of 6 means a high potential for an existing fire to become large or exhibit erratic fire behavior, 5 means medium potential, 4 means low potential, and anything less than 4 means very low potential.

Weather Highlights

1. Now is the time to prepare for the bitterly cold air.
2. Gusty winds today into next Tuesday. Ranging from 20 to 40 mph. Gusts Friday/Friday night could top 50 mph.
3. Widespread rain returns tonight and Friday. Lightning possible. Some storms could produce high winds Friday.
4. Much colder Friday evening into next week. Falling temperatures Friday behind the arctic cold front.
5. Snow showers possible Friday afternoon and night. Watch for slick spots as temps rapidly fall. Flash freeze possible.
6. Bitterly cold air this weekend into much of next week. Pipe busting cold.
7. Tracking a potential snow event Sunday afternoon into Monday.

Weather advice:

Make sure you have three to five ways of receiving your severe weather information.

Now is the time to prepare for pipe busting cold weather. That will arrive this weekend into next week.

Accumulating snow appears likely Sunday PM into Monday. Still early for numbers, but some icy roads are likely in the region. School closings are possible next week.

Forecast Discussion

Good day, everyone.

I am tracking multiple weather threats. As mentioned above.

Not a lot has changed over the past 24 hours.

I did increase wind speeds tomorrow and tomorrow night. Strong gradient winds will cause problems. Gradient wind is caused by rapidly falling or rising barometric pressure.

Gradient winds (non-thunderstorm winds) could top 50 mph. This could cause damage to trees and power lines.

In addition to the above, I did add strong thunderstorms into the KY/TN forecast for tomorrow. Some of the storms could tap into the strong winds aloft and bring them down to the surface. There is a level one risk of a severe thunderstorm warning. The concern would be damaging wind gusts. We expect the tornado risk to remain to our south.

This is a low-end setup. Dew points are low. Temperatures are cool. If we had higher temperatures and higher dew points, then I would be more concerned.

We have big weather changes ahead. Dramatic changes.

What is coming is a prolonged period of cold to bitterly cold temperatures. There will be some nights with wind chill values of -10 to -20. Brrr and double Brrr. That is dangerously cold. Exposed skin can have frostbite in a matter of minutes. Let’s be careful.

Our next big rain event arrives Thursday night into Friday. Widespread showers and thunderstorms across the region. Rainfall totals of one to two inches is anticipated.

I have been closely monitoring the track of Friday’s low. For now, it appears the bulk of the snow with this event will occur north and west of my forecast counties. With that said, the rain may end as snow showers late Friday and Friday night. Gusty winds, bitterly cold air, and snow showers. What a combination.

There could be black ice Friday night if we do have snow showers. The wind should be strong enough to dry the pavement from Friday’s rain. With that said, temperatures will fall fast Friday night.

Here are some model depictions of that deep low pressure center. This is quite the low pressure center for any time of the year. Deep. I suspect this ends up being a blizzard Friday across parts of Missouri and Illinois. We will see what the NWS does.

GFS model.

Green and yellow = rain. Blue is snow. Deep blue represents heavy snow. Notice how the L passes over us. That is the center of low pressure. Notice how the snow is to the west northwest of the low. Rain to the east southeast.

This is 12 PM Friday.

Then, by Friday afternoon the low is moving away from the area. The rain could end as scattered snow showers. Any accumulation would be light. A dusting to an inch. I am not overly concerned about this, but it is something to monitor.

The GFS (below) keeps most of the snow showers to our north.

Bitterly cold air arrives Friday afternoon and night. Temperatures will fall Friday afternoon and a flash freeze is possible Friday night. A flash freeze occurs when temperatures rapidly fall and moisture remains on roadways and parking lots.

Bitterly cold air arrives Friday night and that cold air will linger into most of next week.

Saturday morning lows

Sunday morning lows

Monday morning lows

This will be harsh on outdoor animals and livestock.

Wind chills will dip below ten degrees Friday night. Low wind chill values will be the theme Friday night into much of next week. Occasionally, those wind chill values will dip well below zero. Especially if we have a snow pack.

The NWS may need to issue a wind chill advisory. Either way, it will be bitterly cold.

Snow chances?

A snow event will move into the region Sunday afternoon into Monday. This is the best chance of snow this winter, thus far. Accumulating snow and sleet will be possible area-wide.

This Sunday afternoon into Monday system will track farther south and east than recent events. That means our region will be in the cold sector. This will be an overrunning event.

Overrunning events can produce quite a bit of precipitation. Let’s keep an eye on this one. Confidence is increasing that we will have some wintry weather later this weekend into early next week.

At this time, and keep in mind the storm is still four days away, I am forecasting a widespread dusting to four inch snow event.

Our northern counties will receive little in the way of accumulation. A dusting to an inch perhaps. Our far southern counties will have the highest chance of two to four inches. Again, the event is still four days out and the forecast will need adjustments.

Some models show a second wave of snow Monday afternoon and evening. I will be monitored that.

I have been calling for the higher snow totals to be in northern Arkansas along the Missouri Border into the Missouri Bootheel into and along the Kentucky/Tennessee border. There southward will have the higher chances for accumulating snow. North of there, chances decrease with each passing county.

The overall trend in the system has been to push it slightly farther south and east. Although, some models yesterday shifted northwest by about 30 miles. All of that is within the margin of error four days out.

I have been monitoring the GEFS data. This is the probability of six or more inches of snow. I have mainly been watching this to see where it trends. Although the probabilities for six inches or more of snow is low, I wanted you to see where it placed the higher chances. That is where the chances for two to four inches of snow is higher.

Let me show you some ensembles. They have been trending towards my snow forecast. Higher chances south vs north.

EC model. This is the probability of one inch or more of snow.

GEFS model. What is the probability of one inch of snow.

Canadian model. What is the probability of one inch of snow.

Here is what the Paducah NWS posted.

Double click images to enlarge them.

Since it will be so cold, this will be a dry snow.

Whatever does fall is not going anywhere. It will be bitterly cold next week. If we have a snowpack then temperatures could dip into the single digits with wind chill values below zero a good bet.

Now is the time to prepare for bitterly cold air. This is pipe freezing/busting weather.
