Despite the warm ground and air temperatures, the snow came down at a moderate to heavy clip to allow accumulations on grassy and elevated surfaces. Behind the front, a band of rain quickly switched over to snow within 1 or 2 hours of starting at most locations. In fact, it was the latest measurable snow on record in Paducah and Evansville (dating back to 19 respectively). This was a rare snow event for this late in the season. In Paducah, it was 63 degrees at 4 PM, and by shortly after 7 PM it was snowing. Temperatures rapidly dropped 25+ degrees within 3 to 4 hours. A strong cold front pushed through the region during the afternoon.
