Good Thursday, everyone. Here’s hoping this update finds each of you living life to the fullest. We have had a couple of days of fantastic weather across the bluegrass state, and a reinforcing shot of awesome arrives later tonight. That will get our weekend off and running on a nice note.

While the weekend starts nice, it will end with an increase in temps, humidity and storm chances.

Let’s start with the good stuff and that’s the weather of the next few days. Highs today will top out between 80 and 85 for most areas. Winds will pick up as a few clouds increase ahead of a cold front. This is a moisture starved system that shouldn’t be able to produce much in the way of shower action.

Pleasant air swings back in behind it for Friday as readings hit the low 50s to start and recover into the mid and upper 70s for highs in the eastern half of the state. The west will be in the low 80s. The weather looks great for high school football fans and that continues into Saturday.

Moisture and temps increase by Sunday and that will lead to isolated showers and storms going up. With another heat ridge developing in the plains, we will be on the eastern side of that and will have to watch for a few rounds of storms to roll our way…

Thermometer readings early next week will hit the low and mid 80s for many, but storms and clouds could keep any day in the 70s.

The jet stream will take another dive by the end of next week…

EuroThat should clear us out and cool us back into the 70s for highs.

Have a great day and take care.
