Snow May Produce Poor Travel Conditions in the North-Central U.S. and East Coast

A strong cold front sweeping across the Northern Plains may bring snow showers and snow squalls from eastern Montana to north-central Nebraska, with blizzard conditions possible in eastern North Dakota and northwestern Montana. Heavy snow is expected to persist downwind of the Great Lakes. Snow showers will spread up the East Coast across the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast coasts. Read More >

June 29, 1979
Counties:  Franklin, Scott KY, Harrison KY
F-scale:  F2
Deaths:
Injuries:  7
Path width:
Path length:
Time:  6:00pm
Noted discrepancies:  SPC and NCDC list this as an F2, Grazulis does not list it.  NCDC's county-by-county lat/lons result in a very strange path.  Will use more logical SPC lat/lons for plotting.  Storm Data has this tornado touch down four miles north of Frankfort and moves it to Georgetown and near Cynthiana.  Further research would be good, to confirm this tornado's track.
