Good Saturday, everyone. Tropical Depression Cindy caused all kinds of issues across the bluegrass state on Friday. From flooding rains of more than 5″ to down trees and a possible tornado or two, the system did exactly what I thought it would.
Now, it’s time to look ahead toward a VERY cool weather pattern settling in. This may give us record lows into the first half of next week.
The cooler pattern starts today with upper 70s to low 80s with a mix of sun and clouds. Temps drop into the evening and overnight, with readings near 50 by Sunday morning. Highs will be in the middle and upper 70s.
Another weak front drops in from the north on Monday and could spawn a few showers. Temps behind this front are almost as cool as you can get around here for the end of June. Check out the GFS high temp forecast on Monday…
Tuesday morning lows from that same model are pretty amazing to see…
Record lows are a strong possibility if skies are clear. Wow.
Temps will stay below normal into most of next week, with the models trying to tap another cool shot down the road. Watch the temperature anomalies from the GFS through 4th of July week…
That’s cool to see… Literally. 🙂
Make it a great day and take care.
I guess the cold front hasn’t quite made it this far south and east. Its still muggy outside.
East Jessamine totals we’re 3.7″ all in. Not bad, but definitely less then further north/west. Pool survived still clear so I’m happy 🙂
Thanks Chris, You did a tremendous job in tracking tropical storm Cindy. We had a rainfall total 4.5 inches since the starting of the storm late Thursday. Just what you forecast the totals would be. Some severe weather to our south in cloud rotation, but no touch downs and no reports of damage that I know of. Again, great job spot on. Have a great evening.
Tornado touchdowns in Marion and Larue counties in Kentucky with EF0-EF1 damage reported. Mostly to trees however there was some isolated structural damage reports.
Lexington’s official reading of 3.16″ for Friday was not even a record for the 23rd. 3.89″ in 1960 is the record.
Bowling Green and Jackson are now part of their respective Top Ten wettest June’s
Louisville is the only official NWS reporting station reporting a deficit for the year in terms of precipitation so far
