Partridge, Kentucky

... Snow showers possible in the highest terrain on Monday...

Colder air will spread into the area Monday morning... and rain showers
will likely change to snow showers in the high terrain near the
Virginia border. Snow showers will be most likely on Black
Mountain above 3000 feet... but other areas above 2500 feet... including
Pine Mountain may also see snow showers. The chance for snow showers
will continue into Monday night. Up to one inch of snow is possible
by Tuesday morning in areas above 2500 feet. Some roads which may be
affected by light accumulations of snow include Kentucky 160 across
Black Mountain... Kentucky 38 across Black Mountain... U.S. 119 across Pine
Mountain... and U.S. 421 across Pine Mountain.

... A damp and cool start to the work week...

A slow moving area of low pressure will take its time crossing east
Kentucky through the start of the new work week. This weather system
will bring with it plenty of showers and much cooler conditions as it
passes through the region. A couple of stray thunderstorms will be
possible from this afternoon into tonight for a good portion of the
area as the low/S cold front gradually lifts northeast through
eastern Kentucky. Following this... colder air will seep in from the
southwest and with that there will be a chance for snow showers
mixing in with the rain showers... at times. This colder air will
reach the Interstate 75 corridor toward dawn Monday morning with the
potential for a few flakes of snow. Later Monday night... with the
falling temperatures following sunset... snow showers will again be
possible for much of the area. Most locations will not see any
accumulations from the snow as the ground will still be warm from
this past weekend/S nice weather and the wet nature of the snow will
melt easily. However... locations above 2500 feet... near the Virginia
border... will be slightly colder and as a result up to an inch of
accumulation will be possible by Tuesday morning. Any lingering snow
showers will come to an end or change to just rain later Tuesday
morning. This chilly and damp weather pattern will serve as a rude
welcome to the first few days of Spring.
