Light rain will switch over to snow showers from northwest to southeast later today as temperatures tumble below freezing behind a strong cold front. The transition to snow showers is expected to occur around 5 PM north of I-64 to around 8 PM in the deeper valleys of the Big Sandy Basin and near the Tennessee border. The snow showers will be most widespread through the first half of tonight, before slowly diminishing Thursday morning. A few brief snow squalls are also possible, leading to sudden visibility reductions and snow-covered roadways. Due to the scattered nature of the snow showers and squalls, weather conditions could vary dramatically over short distances. Snow accumulations are forecast to range from a few tenths to around 1 inch for most locations. However, locally higher amounts cannot be ruled out at elevations above 1,500 feet and also in areas impacted by more persistent snow shower and squall activity. Additionally, temperatures will drop into the teens to near 20 degrees tonight. Thus any remaining liquid water on untreated roadways will tend to freeze overnight, potentially leading to slippery travel in some places. Those with travel plans this evening into Thursday morning should be prepared for slippery spots in addition to sudden reductions in visibility and snow-covered roadway conditions when encountering heavier snow showers and squalls.
