Good Tuesday folks and welcome to an ugly day for much of the region. We made it through Monday with very little in the way or strong or severe storms around here and that was the first system all spring to underachieve in that department.

While the severe weather didn’t pan out… the heavy rains sure did and those rains will continue out there today. That is especially the case across central and eastern Kentucky as  low pressure wraps up along the eastern Appalachian mountains. This low will bring a nice shot of chilly air in here as well with temps staying in the 40s for the east. The west will warm toward the 60s as some sun returns.

You can track the rain and temps here…




Current Temps


Winds today will be rather gusty once again… what else is new there?

Here is the breakdown of where we go from here…

– Sunshine will return to the area on Wednesday as high temps warm back into the mid and upper 60s with low 70s west.

– Thursday looks great with highs in the 70s and mainly sunny skies.

– Low pressure makes a run at us later Friday into Saturday. This will be a slow moving storm that will bring some thunderstorms in here for Friday before on and off rains take over into the weekend. This looks to be a soggy weekend that will see the return of much cooler air by late weekend into early next week.

– There is still a lot of cold air up in Canada and this means our active pattern will stay that way for the rest of the month. Periodic severe weather threats and a lot of rain should be common. This should also mean an active May.

– How does the summer look? I will have a sneak peak into the summer months with a post later this week.

Have a great Tuesday and take care.
