   Areas affected...Portions of southern Indiana and northern Kentucky

   Concerning...Freezing rain 

   Valid 052312Z - 060415Z

   SUMMARY...Additional freezing rain, moderate to heavy at times, is
   possible through about midnight to 1 AM EST.

   DISCUSSION...Freezing rain continues to be observed in portions of
   southern Indiana and northern Kentucky. Continued ascent from
   low-level warm advection and the approach of the upstream trough
   will promote continued precipitation into this evening. Regional
   radar shows some heavier pockets of precipitation moving eastward
   from western Kentucky/southern Indiana. Dual-pol radar and surface
   observations indicate that a transition to snow is roughly along the
   Ohio River and should remain in that general vicinity. By midnight
   to 1 AM EST, weakening ascent and drier air moving in aloft will
   likely begin to limit overall precipitation rates and potential for
   ice accumulations.
