Harvey is rolling across the bluegrass state, bringing the threat for flooding rains and a few severe storms. This slow-moving system will also provide us with some wild temperature swings and very gusty winds.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few thoughts on how things may play out&#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The heaviest rains will target central and western Kentucky, with the Interstate 65 corridor being the prime areas for some 6&#8243;+ totals.<\/li>\n<li>Many areas average 2&#8243;-5&#8243; of rain through Saturday, with lighter amounts in the east and southeast. These areas may average 1&#8243;-3&#8243;<\/li>\n<li>The flood threat is very high, with the potential for significant flooding for areas picking up 4&#8243; or more of rain.<\/li>\n<li>The threat for severe storms is there across the south and southeast. Isolated tornadoes can&#8217;t be ruled out. This will be especially true for areas getting in on periods of sunshine.<\/li>\n<li>Winds will be very gusty and we will likely see a corridor of 40mph gusts showing up along and north of the center of circulation.<\/li>\n<li>Leftover showers will be noted through Saturday with temps struggling to get to into the 60s across the eastern half of the state. Record cool high temps are possible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Even with a cold and a shaky voice, I will be on WKYT-TV throughout the day.
