Looks to me like all the severe weather, if any, will be north of I 64.
Doing some Live severe weather blogging over on my blog.
An interesting comment 5 minutes after a severe tstorm warning is issued in SE Kentucky.
New Severe T’storm warning for Grant and Owen counties until 3:30 PM
A win for the Cats!
Heavy rain and lightning now in Lexington
New Severe T’storm Warning for Jackson,Clay and Owsley Counties until 4:00 PM
Watch cancelled. Told you. I can’t believe all that rain in the forecast all week…and all we got was a few hundredths of an inch. 🙁
getting a heavy severe thunderstorm in Barbourville, with torential rains,gusty winds, cloud to ground lightning, and window rattling thunder!!!
regardless of the watch placement and cancelling, the most severe weather has been south of I-64 today, the threat if any is shifting north now, but for the most part today it has been in south and southeastern
With all due respect WxMan- I find both of your comments on this blog irresponsible for a professional weather person.
First, for you to comment that the severe weather will be north of I-64 in the midst of a severe thunderstorm warning for areas south of I-64 is plain nuts.
Secondly, the watch has not been canceled. Areas west of Lexington have been dropped from the watch. However, the watch continues for Lexington and many counties south of I-64.
KENTUCKY COUNTIES INCLUDED ARE
BATH BELL BOURBON
BREATHITT CLARK CLAY
ESTILL FAYETTE HARLAN
HARRISON JACKSON KNOX
LAUREL LEE LESLIE
MADISON MENIFEE MONTGOMERY
NICHOLAS OWSLEY PERRY
POWELL SCOTT WOLFE
LOL! You’re disappointed that a severe weather watch was cancelled and we didn’t get pounded by rain?!?
As expected, some of us ARE getting pounded by rain and severe weather.
Lisa- I think someone else must be posting under WxMan’s name. He would know better than to state that the watch is canceled when the SPC, LMK and JKL say otherwise.
And he would be able to look at radar and know that the rain is far from over for Madison Co (where he lives if I remember correctly).

Thanks for everyone that stopped by the blog for Live Severe Weather coverage. Hope to do this again when we have a bigger event.
Enjoyed it Shane. One note- be sure to wait a few seconds after you finish talking before you pull the plug. I noticed that it cuts you off mid-sentence- I think it may be due to the delay.

yeah it was cool…
Gotcha, Thanks Joe!
We just had a pretty good storm here in Bath Co. Really heavy rain, lots of lightning, pretty good winds. My question is why didn’t anyone say anything about the storms here? Chris tweeted it but no one on here listed where the storms would hit and where. I’m just saying it would’ve been nice.
Is that right?

Look for yourself. In the Ohio Valley, there have been as many reports north of I 64 as there have been south. The pics I’ve seen are all from north also. Based on radar and what was going on at the time I posted, it looked like I 64 and north was the prime area. I stand behind my comments and the data so far backs me up.
Rain ended about 15 minutes ago. No hail here in northern Estill County but heard plenty of thunder. Nice rainbow to the east just before sunset.
I. Do. Not. Like. Storms.
The first few flashes of lightning in 2010 just occurring in Ashland. Bring on the fun!
Here are a couple pictures of the hail that fell today in my part of Madison County.

I enjoyed it as well….
gfs has a snowstorm for 276 hr, march 24th. that last week of March should be it for winter.
You’ll probabaly not see thus, but alas… “just as many”- but your statement was that all of the severe weather would be north of 64, and there was a live sever weather event south of 64 when you posted it.
Further, you made a blanket statement that the watch had been canceled, which was flat wrong.
really useful info, keep up the good work!
understand me and be the perfect better half for me I had always been referred to as the plump sister of Ellen I had always lived under my sister replica shadow I think it was the way I looked and the glasses completed the stereotypical picture I would open the front door to the bevy of young handsome men who would come in pursuit of my sister gucci wallets fake while I was hardly even looked at This went on for a while until the last year of college I decided that it was good to be nerdy and a bookworm but I still needed a life of my own That is
an orphanage I lived in the orphanage for several years before I took up a job and started living on my own But no wonder people dread orphanages I was always made to feel unloved and unwanted almost like I need to be apologetic to have been born GUCCI Handbagss 1198 Although we were really really short on love replica handbags GUCCI Handbagss 1107 when it came to discipline we were right on top of the ladder chanel handreplica We weren allowed even a glimpse of the outside world and the first time that I had a look at what the outside world was all about was when the head keeper wife left a magazine
My god man, I thought you were going to give a clear viewpoint on the issue, it is a little confusign the way u lft it…
