Threeforks Warnings, Watches and Advisories

Special Weather Statement issued November 12 at 8:10PM EST by NWS Jackson KY

Multiple rounds of showers, mostly rain in the valleys and snow at higher elevations, are expected on Friday and Friday night. Temperatures should be cold enough for minor snow accumulations at elevations above 2,500 feet with mainly a dusting to half inch on grassy and elevated surfaces. However, localized 1 to 2 inch snow accumulations are possible over the highest portions of Big Black Mountain. The snowfall combined with air temperatures falling deep in the 20s could yield a few slippery spots over the highest portions of Highway 160 near the Kentucky-Virginia state line, especially on Friday night.
