Weather in kentucky is hard to predict, but apparently lexington is the hardest city to predict! we were supposed to get either sleet or snow... I was hoping for snow... and we didn't get anything!
the snow was all virga (which is snow or rain that evaporates in air because the air is too dry...) well... the snow was all virga until the snow storm passed right over lexington. the snow came down hard on all counties surrounding the lexington-fayette area. they were getting 1" per hour! you don't see that in kentucky but every 10 years... we say it last year... sort of...
but it's snowing right now and they didn't even predict snow for this time of day!
any other people mad about bad weathermen?

I remember last year during that big snow storm where we were supposed to get over a foot of snow... every single county around us got at least 6 inches... every other county in kentucky got at least a foot of snow... fayette county was the only county to get sleet... and a little snow... we had 2 inches of ice underneath the 2-3 inches of snow we got!

well.. they've predicted significant snow accumulation of ice on tuesday night... but rain for monday and the temp will fall fast tuesday night... the rain will turn to ice then snow...
let's see if they're right...

Are weathermen out here in Chicago are both good and bad. Some just talk about records and other stories. There are really only 2 good weathermen.
