Good Monday everyone and thanks for dropping by KWC. The blog continues to experience some problems for those of you who use Internet Explorer. I am hopeful to get these corrected this week. Many folks have been hopeful to get some much needed rain across the state and it looks like Mother Nature will deliver. A nice little round of showers and storms will work across the state today into Tuesday.
The action now looks to be more prominent across central and eastern Kentucky today with only scattered stuff in the west. That’s a part of the state currently in a severe drought and they could sorely use some water. The rest of the state is taking a walk on the dry side, so today’s rain will be welcome.
Locally heavy downpours will be possible with some of the boomers that go up. You can follow along with the regional radar…
A cold front will work in from the northwest on Tuesday. This bad boy may crank up a few strong storms Tuesday afternoon and evening… especially if we break out into a little sunshine ahead of it.
A refreshing brand of air will then move back in for the middle and end of the week. Temps on Wednesday may stay in the 70s for highs. The GFS loves it some 70s…
Lows by Thursday morning may visit the upper 40s in some of the traditional cool spots across the state. The pleasant air should hang around through the end of the week.
I’m still not seeing signs of any big heat moving in anytime soon. The end of the month does have some potential to see some toasty temps around here, but the pattern right now isn’t too favorable for any major hot spells.
Have a great Monday and take care.
I keep getting a virus trying to pop up on this web site. I have used it for almost 2 years now. Anyone else having the same issues??? UGH
Yes!!!! I was hoping I wasn’t the only one getting the annoying pop up! It’s popping up every 20 seconds or so!!! Hey Chris – how to get rid of it on our end??
Yep, i had the same problem over the weekend with Window 7 and Google Chrome. Since there are a lot of comments today I’ll try again tonight and see if the same stuff happens.
For this comment I just brought up the site on my old Linux machine and Mozilla Firefox without any issue.
Yeah, I am having the same virus issues here 🙁 I hope Chris can get this fixed soon.
We missed out on the 1 inch of rain Lex got last week so we are super dry in Bourbon County. My yard is brown and crispy. Any and all rain is welcome. Can’t believe we’ve had no severe weather since the big outbreak on March 2. There is no such thing as normal weather these days.
Woke up to some steady rain this morning. Good thing. Looks like Lexington is getting in on it, as well. I won’t complain, as we all need it. Just wish western KY had gotten in on it, as well. Still raining here, though it lightenes up from time to time, has not stopped. I am thankful. Have a great, wet, Monday, everyone, and thanks, Chris, for all you do.
Looking at the radar looks like western ky will get more than us today
ok goota jeep honest, BLOWN FORCAST as there been no HEAVY RAIN.
folks lucky if they got 4 tenth of a inch.
u my DOG BAILEY and u was right we needed rain but not getting much at all.
I am a daily visitor to the site, and have just recently started using Google Chrome. For the last week or so I keep getting a virus looking window trying to open when I use Chrome, but can open in Explorer without any issues.
Rolo, I think they heavier rain is coming tonight and Tuesday from the west.
I’ve got a friend in England who is working the Olympics and she’s severely depressed since it’s been raining like crazy and she said the forecast for the next thirty days is nothing but more rain. What the heck is going on over there? How is it related to what is happening here? (which, thus far, has been a pleasant spring and Chris sees no heat waves looming, which is most excellent)
Olympics begin in late July, I think, but she says the gloom and doom feeling is spreading over London for fear that the rain won’t stop.
is most of this going to miss us here in East KY?
The widespread soaking that was forecast a few days ago looks to be a bust for most folks! Let’s hope the front will refire wheniit gets into cKY??
Todd, I hope that happens, too. Strong storms are okay, but hoping we can keep the severe threat down–at least from hail and tornadoes. Keep those winds below 55 MPH please! 🙂
Well I just accessed this site with my Google Chrome browser on my Windows 7 machine here is where I see what some of you guys see. No issues with Internet Explorer, oddly enough.
It looks like the morning rains over performed in Lexington, but the later rains didn’t. I use firefox and I am getting a pop up that says “this scripts digital signature could not be verified” with a YES or NO option………So that’s a virus if you choose yes? I chose yes (since this is Chris’ site) and my anti virus didn’t alarm. Guess I’ll scan & run Malwarebytes.
PS – I’ve always used kyweathercenter.com, so I just tried kentuckyweathercenter.com instead, and I didn’t get that pop up.
Waited all day for the storms that were on the horizon….we got not a drop in east Louisville. I too am getting virus pop-ups!
