Good Saturday, everyone. We are coming off another super soaker of a weather week across the bluegrass state. Many areas picked up greater than 3″ of rain, with amounts topping 6″ in isolated areas of the west. What a soggy summer!
As we get ready to close the book on July, we aren’t closing the book on the wet weather. Rounds of showers and thunderstorms will carry over into the first week of the month.
The forecast for this weekend continues to be pretty straightforward. It’s not going to rain all the time, but it’s going to REALLY come down when it does. There’s the chance for a stronger complex of storms to sweep across the region at some point. That shows up at varying times and in varying strength on the models…
With a waterlogged ground, any storm that goes up can cause flash flooding.
Scattered storms continue into early next week, with the potential for some clusters of storms diving in from the northwest.
The setup later in the week into next weekend could become super active… again. This happens as a cold front dives in from the northwest and slows down. That may allow for waves of low pressure to develop along it. All this happens as some tropical stuff tries to fire up in the Gulf…
I leave you with your tracking toys for the day…
Have a great day and take care.
Thanks Chris. For sure been very soggy indeed. We got more than an inch again yesterday here in Somerset at my house. Desperately need to get the yard mowed. Hoping yo do that before today’s rounds start. Last night was very nice outside though. Was a pleasant evening to be out with no oppressive heat. Guess we will see what the day holds. Have a great Saturday everyone. One question Chris….do you ever sleep? ( update posted at 2:22 this morning)
