Good Wednesday, everyone. It’s a nice and chilly weather day taking shape across the region, but it’s all eyes on the weekend and some wild weather. A potent storm system will roll our way and bring a lot of different threats our way, including the potential for flooding rains, high winds, severe storms and record temps.

The overall setup for thew weekend hasn’t changed much…

Areas of central and western Kentucky will get in on the heaviest rains, especially from Friday night through Saturday night…

Much of this comes from a massive area of heavy rain and potential strong to severe storms on Saturday. The potential is there for some pretty hefty thunderstorms to go up.

With or without thunderstorms, high winds are likely to cause issues. The GFS has areas of 60mph or greater…

The EURO seems to be having come feedback issues in the west as it’s going with hurricane force gusts…

If we can get a touch of sun, high temps ahead of this front may top out from 70-75 degrees across the eastern half of the state. Records may very well fall.

We will have to watch for another possible storm system into the first half of next week, but the models are finally seeing some changes later in the week. Watch how the colder air tries to overwhelm the pattern…

GFS temp departures from normal

The Canadian is even colder…

I will have additional updates later today. Make it a good one and take care.
