Cold rain ahead

Sunday, March 1, 2026 11 P.M.

Highly unusual weather pattern shaping up for next 9 hours. All the usual old-time weather indicators are pointing toward “rain” late tonight and much of tomorrow. However, most of the more sophisticated modern models want to bring us some wintry weather for a few hours at the onset.

There’s talk of snow. Nonsense…too warm. Freezing rain is possible…to a degree. Or, actualy, a few degrees. In Louisville, temperatures are not expected to drop to 32 degrees. It is possible to get freezing rain on tree limbs, wires, etc. at a degree or two above freezing. Roadways, however, are well above freezing so NO ICE on roadways – just water.

Some freezing rain is possible north and east of Louisville Metro between about 6 and 9 A.M. Any ice will disappear quickly after that.

Unseasonably warm weather returns Tuesday through the weekend.
