The following is a statement issued by the National Weather Service Paducah regarding the upcoming snow likely to impact the region Jan. 9-10. Snow is expected to reach the area between 9 p.m. Jan. 9 and 3 a.m. Jan. 10.
"Significant snowfall will spread from west to east late tonight into Friday morning, and the entire region is now in a Winter Storm Warning from late tonight through Friday evening. We are expecting snowfall amounts of 3 to 6 inches, with the highest amounts most likely closer to the Missouri/Arkansas and Kentucky/Tennessee borders. With temperatures near or below freezing through the entire event, snow will accumulate quickly. This means we will have slick roads, and everyone needs to slow down if they have to travel, and leave lots of space between yourself and the vehicle in front of you."
