A very active weather pattern is taking shape for late this week into the coming weekend. It&#8217;s a pattern likely to throw rounds of strong storms and heavy rains our way.

Highs reach 80-85 across the west with upper 70s in the east. Those numbers climb even more on Wednesday with highs in the low and middle 80s for the entire state. Winds will be gusty from the southwest as a cold front approaches. This front will likely produce strong storms in the west, with that action weakening across the east through early Thursday&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/?attachment_id=23470\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-23470\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-23470\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/GFS-15.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1181\" height=\"434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/GFS-15.png 1181w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/GFS-15-300x110.png 300w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/GFS-15-768x282.png 768w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/GFS-15-1024x376.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1181px) 100vw, 1181px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another surge of summer air will follow that up on Friday and will set the stage for some big storms and heavy rain.
