An impactful winter system is very likely for the first half of this upcoming work week. The National Weather Service in Louisville has already issued a Winter Storm Watch for many of our Kentuckiana counties from 7 PM EST Monday to 7 AM Wednesday.

Accumulating snowfall will cause road conditions to deteriorate on Tuesday morning, and impacts should last through Wednesday morning in many places. However, temperatures will be at or just above freezing across most of the region Tuesday and Wednesday, so the snow could melt faster than normal even if we get decent accumulations.
