The first winter storm of the season brought widespread sleet and freezing rain. Up to one quarter inch of ice coated roadways during the evening commute. Numerous accidents and slide-offs occurred. An accident on Highway 307 north of Fulton injured a couple of people. Locally higher accumulations of sleet and snow were observed in a small band from Central City westward along the Western Kentucky Parkway. A total of 3.4 inches of sleet and snow fell at Central City. Four inches was reported at Mortons Gap in Hopkins County. A strong cold front ushered much colder air into the region. A weak low pressure system then moved northeast along the front, causing the widespread sleet and freezing rain.
