94.3 the Wolf Country That'll Make You Howl!
Most of Kentucky is once again facing a Winter Storm Warning Friday.

Much of the state is projected to get 3 to 6 inches of snow while counties in western and southern Kentucky could see six to eight inches.

If you are without power or in need of a place to warm up in the upcoming winter weather event, warming centers will be available at the West 84 Fire Department in Big Clifty, the Rineyville Fire Department, the Valley Creek Fire Department in Elizabethtown, the Vine Grove Fire Department, the Stephensburg Community Building, and the Upton Community Center. Contact Hardin County Emergency Management for more information.
