Winter Storm to Hit Region

By Carrie Pond

Paducah, KY – The National Weather Service in Paducah has put a winter storm advisory into effect for residents of western Kentucky, southern Illinois and southeastern Missouri until 6 a.m. tomorrow. NWS meteorologist David Humphries says area residents can expect a mix of snow and ice this evening.

"By tomorrow morning we think you'll have a good covering of anywhere from one inch to maybe two inches of snow and ice on the ground which of course can make for treacherous travel conditions."

Humphries says Calloway County can expect precipitation to start around 8 o'clock tonight, increasing in intensity by 10 p.m.
