Lake-effect Snow and Whiteout Conditions in the Great Lakes Region; Below-average Temperatures in the East

Heavy lake-effect and lake-enhanced snow will persist downwind of the Great Lakes and produce some whiteout conditions that could cause difficult travel conditions. A coastal low will produce moderate to heavy snow over parts of southern and eastern New England into the afternoon. Below average temperatures are expected across the eastern U.S., particularly with chilly morning temperatures. Read More >

The Community Collaborative Rain, Hail, and Snow Network, or CoCoRaHS, is a collection of over 24,000 volunteers who measure and report rainfall amounts each day. Many folks also report snowfall, snow depth, and other weather phenomena.

Butler County is the only county in central Kentucky to have never had a CoCoRaHS volunteer.

If you live or work in Butler County, please consider joining CoCoRaHS today. All it takes is a simple plastic rain gauge and a few minutes in the morning to submit your rainfall amount via the CoCoRaHS app or website. Your rain (and snow) information are used to fill in our daily precipitation maps and are employed in climate research.

For more information, see https://www.cocorahs.org/Content.aspx?page=aboutus or feel free to send us an email.

Even if you're not in Butler County, please consider joining this worthy cause. We can always use more data, and there are several counties that currently have no participants in the program.
