| Episode Narrative | A storm system moved across Tennessee on Thursday. Moisture moving north ahead of a surface trough spread a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain across all of central Kentucky during the late evening hours on December 15th. Across south central Kentucky, freezing rain changed to all rain with only light icing. Farther north, generally northeast of a line from Meade to Casey Counties, light sleet turned into freezing rain. Ice accumulated from around one quarter of an inch to one third of an inch before ending around dawn on the 16th. Snow fell across the northern Bluegrass Region northeast of a line from Trimble to Clark Counties. Snow accumulations ranged from 2 to 5 inches across this area before changing to sleet and freezing rain during the pre-dawn hours. |
| Event Narrative | Three to 5 inches of snow fell countywide before changing to light mix of sleet and freezing rain. |
