We’re looking at about 0.14″ of rain tonight and another 0.13″ Friday, but here’s the key: temperatures are dropping steadily. By Friday afternoon, snow levels are expected to drop to around 2,500 feet elevation in the mountains, which means the higher terrain along the Virginia state line could see some flurries mixing in with the rain.</p><p>This is where it gets interesting. Friday night into Saturday morning, we could actually see our first snowflakes of the season, particularly over the higher elevations of the Cumberland Mountains. The mountains of southeastern Kentucky could see minor accumulations, with Black Mountain potentially getting 0.5 to 1.0 inch by Friday evening. Lower elevations might see just a dusting on elevated surfaces, but it’s definitely possible.</p><p>Saturday will be the coldest day we’ve seen so far this season. Highs will only reach the low to mid-40s, with the mountains staying in the upper 30s. Clouds could be stubborn, especially on the windward side of the mountains, so don’t be surprised if Saturday stays pretty gloomy.</p><p>But the real story is what happens Sunday through Tuesday. This is when we’ll see the coldest nights of the entire season. Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday nights, we’re expecting widespread lows below freezing, with valleys potentially dropping into the low to mid-20s. That’s freeze territory across the board. Highs on those days will only reach the low 50s at best.</p><p>The good news? This pattern starts to moderate by Wednesday. We’ll see mostly sunny skies and highs climbing back into the upper 50s to low 60s. It’s temporary, but it’s coming.</p><p>Make sure you stay with the WYMT First Alert Weather App and WYMT First Alert WeatherNOW for the latest updates on this significant weather event. We’ll be tracking any changes to snow potential and timing closely.</p></div></body>
