Areas affected...portions of central Kentucky

Concerning...Heavy snow

Valid 282244Z - 290145Z

SUMMARY...Brief instances of heavy snow and reduced visibility may
accompany a band of snow showers moving southeast across central
Kentucky. Brief instances of 1 inch/hour snowfall rates with
quarter-mile visibility are the greatest concern.

DISCUSSION...A relatively organized band of moderate to heavy snow
has recently developed across northern Kentucky, with heavy snow and
reduced visibility recently observed at KSDF. These snow showers
will persist southeast amid a conditionally unstable low-level
environment, where 22Z mesoanalysis depicts 0-3 km lapse rates
exceeding 7.5 C/km in spots. For the next couple of hours, these
low-topped snow bands will continue to benefit from the steep lapse
rates, promoting strong wind gusts and heavy snow. Up to 1 inch/hr
rates are possible in the core of the snow bands, where reduced
visibility down to a quarter mile may occur. As low-level lapse
rates weaken after 01-03Z, the heavier snow threat is expected to
gradually diminish.
