LEXINGTON, Ky. (ABC 36 NEWS NOW) – Bundle up! It’s a bitterly cold start to your Friday morning, with temperatures plunging into the low single digits and even below zero in some spots across south-central Kentucky. Clear skies and calm winds allowed for ideal radiational cooling overnight, though some cloud cover has crept into the northern half of the region. These clouds are also producing occasional flurries, particularly in northeast Kentucky, though no accumulations are expected.

Despite the frigid start, we’ll see some improvement by this afternoon as temperatures climb into the upper 20s and low 30s. High pressure will dominate the region, keeping winds light, though lingering cloud cover may still limit some warming in northern parts of the area.
