Fort Knox, Kentucky

... Windy... with cold wind chills... some icy roads... and light
snow tonight...

Temperatures continue to plummet behind a cold front that has pushed
through the region. Temperatures will continue to fall... and bottom
out in the teens for low temperatures. This quick drop in Mercury
readings will allow many untreated and unplowed roads to develop
patches of ice. If venturing out tonight... drive at a reduced
speed... and bundle up.

A strong pressure gradient will allow blustery westerly winds of 15
to 25 mph with gusts as high as 35 mph to continue through
Wednesday morning. Wind chills will bottom out tonight between 5
below to 5 above. Dress warm if venturing out! Wind chills will
still be frigid on Wednesday... only rising into the low to mid
teens due to the strong winds.

Last but not least... scattered snow showers will continue off and
on. Most locations will pick up between a quarter of an inch up to 1
inch total. Heavier snow amounts will occur across north central
Kentucky.

... Very cold temperatures... icy roads... and bursts of snow
tonight...

A cold front is sweeping through the region this evening...
ushering in much colder temperatures. Temperatures are dropping
through the 20s this evening and will drop into the teens overnight.
This may cause wet and slushy roads to refreeze leading to slick
Road conditions. Travel conditions could become extremely
icy... especially on wet side streets and country roads.

In the wake of the cold front winds will strengthen tonight.
Sustained winds of 15 to 20 mph with gusts as high as 35 mph will be
possible by Wednesday morning. Wind chills will bottom out tonight
between 5 below to 5 above. Dress warm if venturing out overnight.

Last but not least... scattered snow showers will develop associated
with the upper level low which is pushing through the region.
Most locations will pick up between a quarter of an inch to an
inch and a half of the white stuff.
