and noon Saturday. 1 to 3 inches of snow will be possible by
Saturday morning... with occasional snow showers bringing up to
another inch of snow accumulation by Saturday night. Despite a
break in the snowfall Saturday afternoon and possibly some
melting occurring... snowfall totals by Sunday morning will
range from 2 to 4 inches... with the highest amounts in the
higher terrain areas especially east of Interstate 75.

* Travel will become hazardous late tonight with temperatures
falling to around freezing. Roadways will become slick and
slushy by Saturday morning... with snow or ice covered bridges
and overpasses possible as well. Travel will be most hazardous
in the hilly terrain of the Bluegrass... mainly east of a
Lexington to Liberty line.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

covered roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while
driving.
