Really? Again? I'm not ready for another one. I'm not completely over the last one. Still have tree limbs and stuff everywhere.
Looking for my Darcy, but finding only Wickham. Right now, I'd settle for Bingley.
I can't remember but I was thinking that the last snow storm we had they called for 4-8 inches too but we ended up getting a lot more. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Madison Co. is in on this forecast too.

One of the forecasters in the afternoon discussion from the NWS had 6-10 inches with more possible in the higher elevations. The NWS out of Jackson had Harlan's and surrounding counties totals at 6-8 and elevations above 2000 ft. up to 12 inches. This morning the local stations had the tri-cities area and lower elevations with 4-6 and elsewhere 6-10...at this time. As the storm gets closer and they see how things look tomorrow with new data, those totals could probably change again as they did with the last one. I think the first call for the last one was 6-8. Still a couple of days to go and plenty of things could change with a storm like this.
this is not the last of it acourding to the farmers almanic we are supposed to get another one in feb

Winter Storm watches have been upgraded to warnings. The NWS is now saying 5-9 inches possible, with locally higher amounts. WJHL saying basically the same as they were painting a 5-7 range in the lower elevations and up 10 in the higher elevations, with a foot or so in the highest terrain. WCYB again also pretty much that, with 4-10, and 6-14 in the higher elev. Was watching WYMT out of Hazard, KY, and Caldwell had a 7-10 inch range, with isolated totals of up to a foot or more, for a good portion of southern KY and through here. East KY/WV forecaster Chris Bailey, had a similar look with 6-10 across most of that area and a 8-12 swath across this area. http://kyweathercenter.com/
As they've said also, a degree or two difference in the temp. can change the totals a lot.
