Around a deep 500 mb low centered just north of the Great Lakes, a shortwave pivoted east-southeast and intensified as it moved across the the Ohio Valley region. Temperatures fell well below freezing ahead of it, due to a cold front that swept through the previous day. Temperatures in the upper teens to lower 20's resulted in a dry, fluffy snow. These cold temperatures also allowed snow to quickly accumulate on roads. Widespread school closures were reported across much of west Kentucky. A crash with injuries was reported in Graves County. Numerous minor wrecks were reported across the region. Snowfall rates of 1 inch per hour occurred across western Kentucky during the morning and early afternoon. The snow ended from west to east through the afternoon. Snowfall totals were heaviest along and southeast of a line from Murray to Greenville, where 5 to 6 inches fell. This area included Hopkinsville, Cadiz, and Central City. Amounts decreased to the north and west. Generally three to four inches was reported in the Ohio River counties from Owensboro to Henderson to Paducah.
