Potential Nasty Weather

Live in the Frankfort area and Winter Storm Warning calls between 6-10 inches of snow with 0.50-0.75 inches of ice.
Here in northern Kentucky we're looking at 11-19 inches 
We were in England in 2009 during the ice storm. My wife came home in late February. She sent me a picture of our front yard. There was a mountain of tree limbs covering the front yard. We don't have a tree on our .40 acre. People were dumping them there because the house had been dark for so long.......
The 2009 ice storm was the worst weather event I have been through. People out of power for more than a month. The electrical grid was devastated.
It's coming down like a big dog in the Corbin, London, Manchester area of Southeastern KY. It started about an hour ago and we are up to around an inch. It's supposed to snow until around 1 or 2 then switch over to freezing rain. As the front moves through, it's giving rain and a rise in temperatures to the mid-high 30's. Overnight it's supposed to be around 42 so hopefully it melts off. Tomorrow gives morning snow but the high is to be 42. Hopefully the temperature will keep it from being a sheet of ice and allow the HWY DEPT to get out and get busy.
That’s only fair. They’ve been giving it to us in the end for years.
Already over an inch where I live in Madison County. I'm hoping against hope we don't lose power.
I absolutely HATE winter.

Kentucky Power Outages Map, Jan 2025
This tracks power outages.
We're at 3.5" after 6 hrs in. My new knee & I cleaned off the drive. Prediction down to 8-9" total with a lot overnight. Not real hard at the moment.
About 5 inches here outside Richmond. Freezing rain constant, but light thus far.
Stay safe everyone. WW.

Measured 5" of snow on our front walk. Been getting ice/sleet/rain since about 4pm. Got plenty of food. Just hoping the power doesn't go out.
Ice hanging from power lines in Central Ky at 6 pm.
Alright friends…..driving tomorrow from Columbia, SC up to Bloomington, IL heading home from visiting family. I will head up 75 from Knoxville and then from Lexington up through Louisville.
I anticipate I’ll hit London around 1:00pm. Any thoughts on if it will still be a mess the further north I get in Kentucky? Would like to make it home, but will stop for the night if it gets bad.

I would detour into nashville and take 65 since most of the state is a mess. But nashville is good and you shouldn't get stuck in traffic until you make it near Louisville
Yeah, I was thinking about going through Nashville, up through Evansville into Illinois.
It's gonna be messy every route but I think the coming in from the south will be better and plenty of places to stop along the way. I wouldn't enter through eastern ky.
Around 7” in Louisville and that measurement is after some of this sleet and ice has capped it and applying weight. Sleet/Rain right now. Gonna be a long night.
After stopping just before dark, it's picked up like a bandit again & near 6". Predict 5 more overnight. Temps never got out of low 20's.
