Good Friday to one and all. The stormy setup we have going on right now across the commonwealth is nothing less than amazing. I’ve said for years that extreme seems to be the new normal around here and this summer is backing that up… again. I really can’t find a break in this thing and next week has me a little concerned.<\/p>\n

Before I get to that, we have storms to contend with today. Some of these could pack a punch with local wind damage and high water the main threats.<\/p>\n

Scattered storms continue this weekend as steamy temps take over. A 90 in the west and south is possible, with other areas mid and upper 80s. The high humidity levels could make it feel close to 100 degrees at times.<\/p>\n

This takes me to the setup that has me very concerned for much of next week. A heat ridge builds in to our southwest as cool air surges into the Great Lakes and northeast. That puts Kentucky in a zone of potential BIG thunderstorm clusters…<\/p>\n

Complexes of thunderstorms may develop well to our northwest and roll in here starting Monday. Severe weather and flash flooding will be possible on daily basis next week.<\/p>\n

The rainfall forecast from the models should be sounding alarm bells in the weather world…<\/p>\n
