By Friday afternoon heavy snow showers will be widespread across Kentuckiana. Snowfall rates of 1 inch per hour will be possible as the storm continues.

Central Kentucky could get another half-foot of snow this weekend, as the state is under another winter storm watch issued by the National Weather Service.

From Friday afternoon into the evening, moderate to potentially heavy snowfalls are possible, gradually decreasing late Friday night into Saturday morning. Quieter weather is expected for the rest of the weekend.

The first wave of snow began early Sunday and conditions worsened throughout the day into the evening as snow was replaced by freezing rain. The ice-and-sleety mix fell on top of the morning snow, snarling traffic, closing Kentucky’s three major airports and closing dozens of churches, restaurants and stores.
