Good Monday, everyone. Heavy rain and thunderstorms are slowly moving away, but we are still dealing with the high water impact. There is another possible high water maker later this week, but the overall pattern is changing and will give winter fans some action to track.

The torrential rains will end this morning, leaving behind a general 1″-3″ with locally higher amounts. Several areas are experiencing flooding to start the day and many of these areas are in the counties I talked about needing to be under a watch to begin with.

River flooding will also become an issue today. Here are the current warnings…

Here are your early day radars…

Chillier and drier winds will blow today, but a few rain showers may still be noted across the north and east. Colder air then drops in from the northwest and may be accompanied by some flakes through New Year’s Eve. Some of the models continue to bring some snow showers across central and eastern Kentucky during this time…

The new year starts on a seasonal and calm note, but that doesn’t last very long. Another storm system comes our way from the southwest for Thursday into Friday. This is likely to bring another round of heavy rain and possible high  water issues.

The GFS is likely too far strung out with the energy and gives us less rains. It does show the cold and snow wrapping in behind the system by Saturday…

The Euro has more rain, but also shows the weekend change to snow…

The Canadian sees the same thing…

We need to watch the next system diving in behind that early next week. The models continue to go back and forth on a phased system or a non phased system. The Canadian shows more of a phased potential…

I will have updates later today. Until then, make it a good one and take care.
