Good Wednesday, everyone. We are tracking a cold front into the bluegrass state and this will continue our trend for isolated showers and storms today. What’s coming behind this boundary is nothing short of awesome and it arrives just in time for Independence Day.

Let’s start with today and roll forward. Scattered showers and storms will continue with periods of sunshine in between. Highs will still be toasty with mid and upper 80s for many.

The front slowly presses to our east on Thursday and will help steer Arthur toward the Carolinas and then just off the east coast toward New England.

A few clouds with a shower or spotty storm is still possible around here Thursday. The dry and cool air then settles in and takes control into the weekend.

The Hi-Res NAM is even cooler with highs on Thursday…

The lows from the GFS are even cooler than before. While these are probably overdone, they are pretty awesome to see…

GFSIf we can get close to those numbers, it would put some areas within reach of a record low.

The long range call will be for a quick recovery in temps by late weekend into early next week. Showers and storms will also return ahead of another big dip in the jet stream…

EuroThat would set the stage for another big temp drop for the middle and end of next week.

Enjoy your Wednesday and take care.
