Winter Storm Hits Kentucky
KENTUCKY....
The awaited winter storm for Kentucky moved in Friday as rain changed over to snow in several areas, placing eastern and southeastern Kentucky under a Winter Storm Warning, with four to eight plus inches of snow possible. Weather created problems for motorists and caused many events to be cancelled. The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet readied itself with crews prepared to work around the clock. Pre-treating roads continued Friday in some parts of the state. Kentucky road condition information is available by dialing 511 or visiting online at http://www.511.ky.gov/.
