Good evening, folks. Heavy rain and gusty winds are rolling across the bluegrass state as a powerhouse of a cold front slams in. This front is ushering in a major temperature drop and a touch of wet snow for some.

Ahead of the front, record highs in the 70s were recorded in central and eastern Kentucky. A wall of rain and some thunder is also ahead of the front, creating additional high water issues for some.

As the front passes, temps drop into the 20s tonight with a period of wet snow possible. Wind chill numbers by Friday morning will be around 10 degrees in a few areas. That means it is going to feel 60 degrees colder tomorrow than this afternoon. That’s absurd.

Seasonal cold settles in for Friday and Saturday with the next system moving in on Sunday. The NAM shows the potential for rain and a mix…

The next system moves in early next week, bringing the potential for another heavy rain event. Ugh.

I leave you with your evening tracking tools…
