Snow in the Rockies; Showers and Thunderstorms Along the Gulf Coast; Potential Winter Storm for Northern Mid-Atlantic and Interior New England

A winter-like pattern will continue over much of the Lower 48 over the next few days, with snow stretching from the Rockies today into the Middle Mississippi Valley on Monday. Showers and thunderstorms will develop along the Gulf Coast and Southeast on Monday. As the storm moves northward late Monday into Tuesday, winter weather is possible from the Central Appalachians to Interior New England. Read More >

NWS Louisville delivered two Turn Around Don't Drown (TADD) road signs to Spencer County, KY officials today (8/29/23). These signs will be posted at the low water crossing along Old Heady Road where Plum Creek frequently overflows during heavy rains causing the bridge to become impassable with flood waters. In 2019, a family was swept away by floodwaters while trying to cross the flooded bridge at this location. Most of the family was rescued, however the father did not survive. Hopefully with added TADD signs along this frequently flooded crossing, people driving through the area will play it safe when they see flood waters and remember to "Turn Around Don't Drown!"
