Strong and severe storms rumbled across the bluegrass state Thursday and more of the same can be expected today. If anything, the severe weather threat looks to be even greater later today into the evening.<\/p>\n<p>A developing storm system will roll across the region from west to east through tonight and Saturday. This is a potent storm that doesn&#8217;t look like something you see during the summer months. Rounds of showers and storms will be common ahead of this system today.<\/p>\n<p>As the area of low pressure deepens later in the day, expect the threat for severe storms to rapidly increase across the entire region. The Storm Prediction Center highlights our region for the greatest chances for severe weather&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/SPC2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14813\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/SPC2.png\" alt=\"SPC\" width=\"331\" height=\"779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/SPC2.png 331w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/SPC2-127x300.png 127w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 331px) 100vw, 331px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, damaging winds will continue to be the main threat we have to be on guard for. If we can get some storms to go up on their own ahead of the main cluster this evening, a tornado or two can&#8217;t be ruled out. Just like Thursday, showers and storms from early in the day will have a lot to say about how that transpires.<\/p>\n<p>Much of the region is also under a Flash Flood Watch through Saturday morning. We&#8217;ve had a lot of rain over the past few weeks and additional totals of 1&#8243;-3&#8243; will be possible for some areas. That could cause additional flash flooding concerns.<\/p>\n<p>These storms will also be prolific lightning producers!<\/p>\n<p>The heaviest rains will end early Saturday with windy, cool and showery weather taking over. Temps fall into the 60s for much of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday looks great with sun and 70s for highs after low 50s start the day.<\/p>\n<p>Next week is likely to see additional systems diving in from the northwest, bringing additional heavy rain and storm threats. Temperatures will continue to average below normal through the week and into the 4th of July weekend.<\/p>\n<p>I leave you with your daily dose of severe weather tracking tools&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accuweather.com\/radar-large.asp?partner=netweather&amp;traveler=0&amp;site=KY_&amp;type=SIR&amp;anim=1&amp;level=state&amp;large=1#\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/sirocco.accuweather.com\/nx_mosaic_640x480_public\/sir\/inmaSIRKY_.gif\" alt=\"\" usemap=\"#largemap\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/radblast-mi.wunderground.com\/cgi-bin\/radar\/WUNIDS_map?station=PAH&amp;brand=wui&amp;num=6&amp;delay=15&amp;type=N0R&amp;frame=0&amp;scale=1.000&amp;noclutter=0&amp;t=1293824059&amp;lat=0&amp;lon=0&amp;label=you&amp;showstorms=0&amp;map.x=400&amp;map.y=240&amp;centerx=400&amp;centery=240&amp;transx=0&amp;transy=0&amp;showlabels=1&amp;severe=0&amp;rainsnow=0&amp;lightning=0&amp;smooth=0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/radblast-mi.wunderground.com\/cgi-bin\/radar\/WUNIDS_map?station=LVX&amp;brand=wui&amp;num=6&amp;delay=15&amp;type=N0R&amp;frame=0&amp;scale=1.000&amp;noclutter=0&amp;t=1272129536&amp;lat=0&amp;lon=0&amp;label=you&amp;showstorms=0&amp;map.x=400&amp;map.y=240&amp;centerx=400&amp;centery=240&amp;transx=0&amp;transy=0&amp;showlabels=1&amp;severe=0&amp;rainsnow=0&amp;lightning=0&amp;smooth=0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/radblast-mi.wunderground.com\/cgi-bin\/radar\/WUNIDS_map?station=JKL&amp;brand=wui&amp;num=6&amp;delay=15&amp;type=N0R&amp;frame=0&amp;scale=1.000&amp;noclutter=0&amp;t=1272129776&amp;lat=0&amp;lon=0&amp;label=you&amp;showstorms=0&amp;map.x=400&amp;map.y=240&amp;centerx=400&amp;centery=240&amp;transx=0&amp;transy=0&amp;showlabels=1&amp;severe=0&amp;rainsnow=0&amp;lightning=0&amp;smooth=0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"centerImage wide99\" src=\"http:\/\/gray.ftp.clickability.com\/wkytwebftp\/WEBWATCHES.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"centerImage wide99\" src=\"http:\/\/gray.ftp.clickability.com\/wkytwebftp\/WEBWARNINGS.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Today\u2019s risk area<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.spc.noaa.gov\/products\/outlook\/day1otlk.html\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.spc.noaa.gov\/products\/outlook\/day1otlk.gif\" alt=\"Latest Day 1 convective outlook\" width=\"582\" height=\"408\" \/><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Current watches<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.spc.noaa.gov\/products\/watch\/\"><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.spc.noaa.gov\/products\/watch\/validww.png\" alt=\"Current Watches\" width=\"582\" height=\"408\" \/><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Possible watch areas<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spc.noaa.gov\/products\/md\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.spc.noaa.gov\/products\/md\/validmd.png\" alt=\"Current MDs\" width=\"582\" height=\"408\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Have a great day and take care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Friday, everyone.
