Cold & Windy…Maybe Snow

4:30am radar showing scattered snow flurries north of Bowling Green

NOWCAST:
Mainly clear this morning with temperatures in the 30s. A chilly west to northwest wind will make it feel like it’s in the 20s at times. Some clouds and even a few snow flurries are possible mainly north of Bowling Green around the Rough River Lake area.

IT’S WINTER AFTER ALL…
After topping out at 60 degrees Sunday morning, highs today will be hard pressed to reach the mid 30s despite some sunshine. Stiff northwest winds – gusting 25 to 30 mph at times – will send wind chills down into the teens at times. In addition, a disturbance rotating across the Great Lakes may send a few stray snow flurries southward into Kentucky – mainly north of Bowling Green. No accumulation is expected. Tonight looks to be our coldest of the season with lows in the upper teens and wind chills as low as the single numbers. Tuesday will feature more sunshine but cold highs only in the lower 30s.

LATE WEEK WARM UP…
Our blast of cold, arctic air will be short-lived. Readings rebound Wednesday back to near seasonal averages for early January standards. The warming trend continues through Friday, where temperatures will be right back into the unseasonably mild upper 50s once again. Our next chance for rain comes over the weekend with a slight cooldown expected Sunday.
