Good Sunday everybody. Our weekend is ending on a milder note across the bluegrass state and that’s a signal for what’s to come over the next several days. Throw in a couple of big storm systems to track and you have the recipe for a busy week of weather.

High temps today will hit the upper 40s to low 50s for most areas under partly sunny skies.

The really mild air starts to kick in on Monday with readings warming to near 60 degrees. Winds should be rather gusty from the southwest. There will be a weak front settling in just to our north on Tuesday and that may knock a degree or two off the temps in our northern counties.

The focus will quickly turn toward a developing storm in the plains states. This storm will roll toward the Great Lakes by Wednesday and this looks to bring fairly widespread showers and thunderstorms in here. Check out the continued booming look of the GFS…

Have a great Sunday and take care.
