The episode as NWS LMK wrote it up.
Snow developed during the late afternoon on February 11th and continued until late evening. A swath of 3 to 4 inch accumulations fell across Hancock...Northern Breckenridge...Meade and Jefferson counties eastward along interstate 64 through the northern Bluegrass region. Freezing rain later developed across northern Kentucky during the pre-dawn hours on February 12th. Ice accumulations ranging from 1/4 of an inch to just under 1/2 of an inch were common until temperatures rose above freezing by late morning. Ice accumulations brought minor tree damage. The snow and freezing rain lead to numerous school and activity cancellations.

.SHORT TERM (MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)...
..SIGNIFICANT WINTER STORM MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY...
A SIGNIFICANT WINTER STORM WILL TAKE SHAPE MONDAY...AFFECTING OUR
CWA MAINLY MONDAY EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. SIGNIFICANT SNOW
AND ICE ACCUMULATIONS ARE POSSIBLE OVER THE NORTHERN TWO-THIRDS OF
THE CWA...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL OVER THE SOUTH.
THE STORM SYSTEM AT HAND WILL DEVELOP OVER THE SRN PLAINS AS AN
INVERTED SFC TROUGH. NAM A LITTLE FASTER THAN GFS WITH ITS NEWD
MOVEMENT. NAM TEMPS ARE ON TRACK BETTER...SO HAVE FOLLOWED THE NAM
FOR TIMING/PRECIP TYPE. PRECIP ONSET WILL BE OVER THE WRN/NWRN CWA
MONDAY AFTERNOON CAUSED BY WARM FRONT/ISENTROPIC LIFT. NAM BUFKIT
SOUNDINGS INDICATE ALL SNOW AT ONSET...EXCEPT FOR OUR FAR SWRN CWA
WHICH COULD BE RAIN INITIALLY.
BY 00Z...NAM/GFS BUFR SOUNDINGS INDICATE HEAVY SNOW OVER THE NWRN
CWA...WITH WARM AIR ALOFT PUSHING NORTHWARD THROUGH 12Z...CHANGING
SNOW TO A SNOW/SLEET/FREEZING RAIN MIX TOWARD 12Z TUESDAY. WITH
THE POTENTIAL FOR THUNDER SNOW...COULD BE QUICK 2-4 INCH SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS (MAYBE MORE) OVER OUR FAR NRN INDIANA
COUNTIES...WITH LESSER AMOUNTS FURTHER SOUTH. WITH THE ICING ON
TOP OF THIS MAINLY BETWEEN 06-12Z...THINK A WINTER STORM WARNING
IS THE WAY TO GO OVER OUR INDIANA COUNTIES AND INCLUDING GENERALLY
OUR NORTHERN MOST KY TIER OF COUNTIES (INCLUDING LOUISVILLE METRO).
COULD SEE GENERALLY A TENTH OF AN INCH OF ICE ACCUMULATION ON TOP
OF THE SNOW THAT FALLS...SO VERY HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY
LATE MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING.
FURTHER SOUTH INTO CENTRAL KY...SFC TEMPS WILL BE WARMER BUT STILL
COLD ENOUGH WITH ENOUGH WARM AIR ALOFT THAT MORE OF AN ICING EVENT
WILL TAKE PLACE...WITH LIGHTER SNOW ACCUMS MONDAY AFTN-EVEN. THINK
AROUND A QUARTER OF AN INCH OF ICE ACCUM IS POSSIBLE WITH PERHAPS
1-2 INCHES OF SNOW...MAINLY SOUTH OF THE WARNING AND NORTH OF A
LINE FROM HARTFORD TO LEBANON TO RICHMOND (INCLUDING THE LEXINGTON
METRO AREA). ANY FROZEN PRECIP SHOULD CHANGEOVER TO ALL RAIN BY
MIDDAY TUESDAY...THOUGH A COLD RAIN. GREAT MOISTURE TRANSPORT
ALONG THE FRONT/TROUGH...SO HEAVY RAIN MAY BE POSSIBLE AS WELL.
SOUTH OF THE LINE FROM HARTFORD TO LEBANON TO RICHMOND SHOULD BE
MOSTLY RAIN THE ENTIRE TIME. SOME LIGHT ICING IS POSSIBLE LATE
MONDAY/EARLY TUESDAY...BUT SHOULD REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY CRITERIA.
SOUTH-CENTRAL KY MAY RECEIVE HEAVY RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY TUESDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON...MOST AREAS WILL HAVE CHANGED OVER TO
RAIN...EXCEPT THE FAR NWRN CWA WHERE A RAIN/SNOW MIX IS MOST LIKELY.
SHORT-TERM MODELS HAVE THE TROUGH SWEEPING THROUGH OUR WRN CWA
TUESDAY AFTERNOON...THROUGH OUR CENTRAL CWA AROUND 00Z WED...AND
THROUGH OUR EAST BY MIDNIGHT. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE WNW AND BE
GUSTY AT TIMES. FOR PRECIP...ANY RAIN WILL CHANGEOVER TO A RAIN/SNOW
MIX TO SOLELY SNOW LATE TUESDAY...ENDING OVER THE BLUEGRASS SHORTLY
AFTER MIDNIGHT. THINK THAT ANY SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ON THE BACK SIDE
OF THE FRONT WILL BE MINIMAL. MAIN SHOW WILL BE BETWEEN 00Z-14Z
TUESDAY.
LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)...
SHOWERS FROM SHORT TERM SYSTEM TO EXIT BY WEDNESDAY WITH MAYBE A FEW
FLURRIES IN THE HIGHER TERRAIN BEFORE MID MORNING...THOUGH NOT
ENOUGH OF A THREAT AT THIS POINT TO MENTION IN THE FORECAST SINCE IT
APPEARS THAT ALL FORCING WILL BE WELL EAST OF THE CWA. HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN WEDNESDAY AND REMAINS THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT FOR QUIET AND
COOL WEATHER BOTH DAYS. SPLIT FLOW DEVELOPS IN TIME FOR FRIDAY WITH
A MORE ACTIVE PATTERN RETURNING TO THE AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
MUCH UNCERTAINTY IN TIMING ANY PRECIPITATION IN THE AREA...AND WILL
CONTINUE INHERITED BROADBRUSHED POPS APPROACH TO THE WEEKEND
FORECAST. GFS MODEL BRINGS THE IMPACTS OF A FAIRLY STRONG SURFACE
LOW FROM THE SOUTH INTO THE CWA BEGINNING FRIDAY AFTERNOON...WHERE
AS THE EUROPEAN MODEL HOLDS THIS INITIAL IMPACTS OF THE LOW OFF
UNTIL VERY LATE IN THE WEEKEND. BOTH MODELS CURRENT SOLUTION WOULD
KEEP US ENTIRELY ON THE COLDER SIDE OF THE LOW FOR AN ALL SNOW TYPE
EVENT...HOWEVER LATEST RUNS OF BOTH MODELS HAVE ALREADY BEGUN THE
FURTHER NORTH TRENDING OF THE SURFACE LOW THAT HAS BEEN THE CASE
WITH EVERY LOW THROUGH THE EASTERN US THIS WINTER. THE FURTHER NORTH
SOLUTION WOULD RESULT IN MORE OF A MIXTURE FOR THE AREA AND HAVE
KEPT MIXED WORDING FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST AS WELL...AND WILL MONITOR
MODELS AND LOW TRACK AS THE WEEKEND MOVES CLOSER TO SEE IF WINTER
SCENARIO INDEED DEVELOPS.
AS FOR TEMPERATURES IN THE EXTENDED...MODEL ENSEMBLE RANGES ARE ON
THE ORDER OF 10-15 DEGREES EARLY IN THE EXTENDED WITH RANGES OF
15-20 OR MORE IN THE LATTER HALF OF THE PERIOD. THIS LEADS TO A VERY
UNCERTAIN TEMPERATURE FORECAST THROUGH THE EXTENDED AND HAVE KEPT
FORECAST VALUES FOR HIGHS AND LOWS TOWARD THE CENTER OF THE ENSEMBLE
RANGES. THIS RESULTS IN A NEAR TO SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURE
FORECAST...BUT CONSIDERING THE WIDELY VARYING MODEL SOLUTIONS
TEMPERATURES COULD END UP BEING MUCH WARMER OR COLDER THAN CURRENT
FORECAST VALUES.
&&
.AVIATION / (18Z TAFS)...
VERY COMPLICATED SET OF TAFS...WITH BIGGEST PROBLEM THE MODEL
SOLUTION CONFLICT. THE MODELS SURFACE AND BOUNDARY LAYER
TEMPERATURES DID NOT INITIALIZE WELL...WITH CLOUD COVER AND ELY
COOL WINDS KEEPING TEMPS DOWN. ANYWAY...EXPECT EVAPORATIVE COOLING
TO MOISTEN THE LOWER LAYERS OF THE ATMOSPHERE...SO VIRGA WILL
QUICKLY BECOME LIGHT SNOW AND THEN MORE MODERATE TO ISOLATED HEAVY
SNOW BURSTS THIS EVENING. THE LOW LAYERS ARE ALREADY MOISTENING IN
CGI RIGHT NOW. THIS WILL DROP MID DECK CIGS AT LEX AND SDF TO 030
TO 040 CIGS BETWEEN 22 AND 00Z.
STRONG ISENTROPIC ASCENT WILL BRING HEAVIER PRECIP AND LOWER
VISIBILITY AT SDF DURING UPS OVERNIGHT PUSH...SO DE ICING
OPERATIONS WILL BE IN FULL SWING. SWLY BOUNDARY LAYER TO H9 WILL
WARM OVERNIGHT...WHICH WILL SHIFT THE SNOW TO A MIXTURE OF SLEET
AND FZRA WITH PEAK OF THIS FROM 8Z TO 12Z. THIS WILL CAUSE
DANGEROUS FLYING CONDITIONS...MVFR TO NEAR IFR FLIGHT CONDITIONS.
FOR BWG...ELEVATED CONVECTION IS LIKELY WITH STRONG LOW LEVEL JET
ALONG WITH ELEVATED INSTABILITY.
