| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A winter storm produced about 4 inches of snow in far western Kentucky, west of a line from Murray to Madisonville. Further east, from Owensboro to Murray, a mix of sleet and freezing rain limited accumulations to 1 to 3 inches. In the Hopkinsville area, mainly ice was reported, causing significant glazing of trees and power lines. In some counties, such as Union County, schools were closed for several days following the storm. No serious injuries were reported in weather-related accidents. A jackknifed tractor-trailer rig closed the Purchase Parkway for four hours. Snow-slickened highways were a factor in two fatal traffic accidents. A woman was killed in a wreck in Caldwell County, and another woman died in a Graves County crash. |
