This Date in Weather History

Winds gusted to 73 mph, and snowfall totals ranged up to 17 inches at LaFarge. The barometric pressure at Chicago IL dropped three quarters of an inch in six hours to 28.96 inches, a record low reading for December.

About Glens Fork, KY

Glens Fork is an unincorporated community located in Adair County, Kentucky, United States. Its elevation is 810 feet (247 m). Glens Fork is located in a region of limestone, so the land is perforated by many sinkholes and small caves. Most of the area is a karst landscape, where rainfall drains directly into sinkholes rather than into streams. There are several undeveloped caves in the region, including the Helms Caves, which contain American Indian artifacts.
