Good Friday and welcome to a day of tracking storms across the bluegrass state. Our flow is right off the western Gulf of Mexico and this is leading to an increase in juice for atmosphere to produce heavy rain producing storms. That trend kicks in today and ramps up even more over the next few days.

The highest threat for showers and storms today will be across central and western Kentucky. Some of these storms may become severe with damaging wind and large hail possible. Given the available moisture… torrential rain will be likely.

Let’s track the storms…

The threat for strong and severe storms will be with us again on Saturday and Sunday as a cold front works through here. Rounds of boomers will be possible and the potential is there for some hefty rain totals as we begin the month of June.

Much cooler air sweeps in for Monday and Tuesday with highs in the low and mid 70s. This looks like a good few days of weather before more humidity and storms move in for the second half of next week.

Have a great Friday and take care.
