Snow Days

The mess of Thursday morning had more to do with the ice rather than the snow. Sure some of us picked up some good amounts, but most of the problems came from the slickness!

The snow came down in a hurry for many folks. The heavier bands were pretty tough on Wednesday night and Thursday morning. It looks like more snow will effect the highest elevations of southeastern KY. All of us could see some more snow though. Here's my brief post!

Snowfall so far!
