The next few days will be spent preparing for the major winter storm expected to hit on Sunday and Monday. Weather forecasters have been monitoring and trying to predict the storm’s track, and the consensus is that conditions will be hazardous starting on Sunday.
There is still uncertainty about whether we will receive several inches of snow or a mix of snow, sleet, and freezing rain. The latter is the worst-case scenario, as ice could accumulate on power lines, snapping them and leaving many people without power.
Residents should plan what to do in case of power outages. Before Sunday, buy all of the white bread and milk in the store, and be ready to settle in to watch football or Netflix while the snow falls.
Jonathan Weaver, 44News meteorologist, anticipates snow will start Sunday morning and then convert to freezing rain and sleet south of I64 during the day before switching back to snow that night and into Monday.
Roads will be slick and hazardous.
