A lead forecaster with the National Weather Service of Paducah said a major winter weather storm could dump up to a foot of snow across multiple states through Monday night making travel “treacherous” to nearly impossible.
National Weather Service Lead Forecaster Chris Noles in a virtual call Sunday said the region should see 1-3 inches of snowfall Sunday night, with snowfall of increasing intensity starting late Monday morning that could reach a rate of an inch per hour. Noles said the storm could dump at least six inches of snow and up to a foot in some parts of the region through Monday night, with drier and unusually cold conditions compounding visibility issues.

The restoration project is a lengthy one, and requires the bridge between Covington and Cincinnati to be closed for nine months, and possibly longer.
Covington businesses near the foot of that bridge are concerned. The Roebling Point district is home to cafés, restaurants, bars and bookstores that have already been, like so many elsewhere, hammered by the economic fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Now they have to brace themselves further as another threat to their vitality looms.
To talk about the project and the issues around it,
Cincinnati Edition is joined by Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 6 Office Public Information Officer Nancy Wood; Covington City Manager David Johnston; Roebling Point Books & Coffee Owner Richard Hunt; and Lil s Bagel Owner Julia Keister.
