US-3181867 Winter in Kentucky

Because of its central U.S. location, the weather in Kentucky is typically mild and moderate throughout the year.

The state experiences all four distinct seasons, with warm summers and moderately cold winters. The daytime temperature during the summer averages 87 degrees. Conversely, the winter lows average around 23 degrees.

However, from a website entitled “Winter in Kentucky” I found these precipitation records :

Snowfall: 13.4 inches, Jan. 27, 1943.

Snow depth: 14 inches, 1978, 1917.
Also notable: 1978 snow depth, Jan 18-24: 12 inches, 11 inches, 14 inches, 14 inches, 14 inches, 11 inches, 8 inches.
