A big severe weather outbreak continues across the deep south and these storms may help us out a bit today.

I mentioned the big severe weather outbreak in the deep south and how it may help us out a bit. How does that happen? Those storms may end up intercepting the moisture supply into Kentucky, or at least slowing it down some.<\/p>\n<p>As a matter of fact, we may get through the early parts of the day without much action, with the bulk of the rain holding off until tonight.<\/p>\n<p>The GFS continues to show some heft totals through Monday, but you can see how it has cut the totals down because of the southern storms&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/?attachment_id=22200\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-22200\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-22200\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/GFS-Rain-14.png\" alt=\"GFS Rain\" width=\"786\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/GFS-Rain-14.png 786w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/GFS-Rain-14-300x293.png 300w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/GFS-Rain-14-768x750.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 786px) 100vw, 786px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That still shows some high amounts of rain across the southeast with a general 1&#8243;-2&#8243;.
