State and local emergency management agencies continue to monitor an approaching weather system capable of bringing dangerous winter conditions to western Kentucky. The Paducah National Weather Service expects a mix of rain, freezing rain, sleet and snow to reach the area by late Monday.
As the mix of wintry conditions is expected to continue throughout the day and evening Tuesday, Kentucky officials encourage everyone to remain alert and continue to monitor their local broadcasting stations and weather alert radios. If you do not have to travel, stay in. If you must travel use caution and drive slow, maintaining plenty of stopping distance.
