Several years ago, the National Weather Service switched from issuing warnings for entire counties to smaller areas, focused on where we think the best chance for hazardous weather either within a county or across county lines. If a warning were issued for your city, would you know where you are on a map? If not, print out the map below to find your county and then the county seat. Approximate how far you are away from that city and in which direction and then mark it on the map. Keep that as a reference for when you later see a warning either on TV, on our webpage, or when tweeted out by our office. The images farther down the page show example tweets of warnings for near the Louisville, Lexington, and Bowling Green areas.
