Good Saturday to one and all. A stalled front is teaming with the remnants of Gordon to produce rounds of showers and storms this weekend. The tropical atmosphere means many areas will pick up a lot of rain through Monday, potentially leading to, at least, local high water issues.

Today will feature scattered showers and storms in the east and southeast, with more widespread action in the west and north. Any one area can experience some high water issues, but the greatest risk will be closer to the track of the ghost of Gordon.

Here are the tracking tools for the day…

The showers and storms will continue to increase from west to east tonight and into Sunday. This happens the remnant low from Gordon works through the lower Ohio Valley then wraps up as it lifts to the north. That will also drag a cold front slowly across the state. That front will ignite widespread showers and storms and can cause high water issues across central and eastern Kentucky into early Monday. A few of the storms may even be strong.

Monday as a chance to be pretty cool under clouds and showers. Temps may not get out of the 60s in some areas.

Temps rebound with the threat for more showers and storms into the middle and end of next week. That’s when the focus shifts to the east coast.

Florence is going to track toward the east coast and could be a major Hurricane as it approaches the Carolinas by the middle of next week…

There’s nothing good that can come from the setup.

The models are all over the east coast hit, with some of them taking this far enough inland to influence our weather. The European Model is showing this potential…

The GFS is also a Carolina hit, but it keeps it going up the east coast then back out to sea…

The Canadian is the farthest south and farthest west with the inland track…

It doesn’t end with Florence. Look at the additional action showing up…

Hyper-Active!

I will have updates later today, so check back in. Make it a good one and take care.
