EASTERN KENTUCKY (WYMT) — Temperatures are dropping and roads are turning icy across the region Sunday night.

Several police agencies are asking residents to avoid travel unless it’s an emergency.

Even major highways, including Interstate 75, are reportedly slick and hazardous.

Temperatures are expected to fall into the teens, and the region may not see above-freezing temperatures for a week or more. Light snow is also possible Sunday night.

Thousands of customers remain without power across southern Kentucky, and many schools and businesses have already announced closures for Monday.
