Special Weather Statement

Issued at Thu 3:22 PM Jan. 29

Issued by: National Weather Service

Description

A narrow band of light snow is expected to develop tonight as far north as the I-64 corridor. However, this swath of snow will then spread southeast across central and eastern Kentucky Friday morning into the afternoon hours. Minor accumulation of dry, fluffy snow is possible - perhaps up to an inch east of I-65 and south of the Bluegrass Parkway. East-central Kentucky, especially the I-75 corridor from Richmond southward, has the best chance of seeing 1 inch or more of accumulation. This band of light snow could quickly coat previously plowed/treated roads once again, which could lead to minor travel impacts on top of the lingering impacts from the winter storm. Slow down and use caution while traveling.
