A mix of light snow and sleet, possibly mixed with a little light freezing rain will affect east-central Kentucky, including Lexington into early this afternoon.
With temperatures currently at or a degree or two below freezing, expect some slick spots on roads, especially secondary roads and overpasses. Use caution if driving.
Precipitation will diminish and change to scattered rain showers, and surface temperatures will slowly rise above freezing this afternoon.
The National Weather Service in Louisville has issued a Flood Watch for southern Indiana and central Kentucky from Sunday evening through Tuesday afternoon.
A slow-moving frontal boundary will linger over the region Sunday into Tuesday. Lift along this boundary will cause a prolonged period of light to moderate rainfall, causing rises on area rivers and streams and likely periods of street flooding.
This rainfall could cause some area rivers to rise to moderate flood stage. Also, flash flooding will be possible Monday night as a trailing cold front crosses the region.
A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on current forecasts.
You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.
