National Weather Service Jackson KY
202 PM EST Sun Nov 30 2025

.DISCUSSION...A cold front will exit east of the area this
afternoon. After frontal passage, colder and drier air will
arrive and persist through Monday. More significant precipitation
is possible in the Monday night-Tuesday time frame because of a
weather system passing to our south. Some of this precipitation
may occur as accumulating snow or ice, especially north of the
Mountain Parkway.
