Good Thursday, everyone. We continue tracking rounds of showers and thunderstorms rolling across the bluegrass state, bringing an extended flood threat. This will carry us through the upcoming weekend and may end with strong or severe storms.

Our day starts with the potential for flash flooding into much of the state as a band of heavy rain moves through. This can drop a general 1″-2″ before sunup in some areas. Watch those waterways.

Additional rounds come through here later today then again Friday and Saturday. The setup for late Saturday into Saturday night has a severe storms look to it…

That’s a setup I’m going to be watching very closely, as instability really increases ahead of our cold front and low wrapping up to our northwest. The front FINALLY looks to end the rains by Sunday afternoon, but not before many areas have picked up several inches of rain.

Here are your tracking tools for the day…
