The remnants of Hurricane Delta continue to track toward the region, bringing the heavy rain potential for parts of the state. This is targeting the southern and southeastern areas of Kentucky with the most rain. As we look into next week, we find cold fronts taking center stage as we go into a winter looking overall pattern.<\/p>\n<p>The super sharp rainfall gradient I&#8217;ve been talking about is very evident out there today. This has set up just a little farther south than I originally thought and this looks to continue through Sunday. The heaviest rains continue to aim toward areas south of Interstate 64 during this time. A few inches of rain will be possible across the southern half of the state, but totals north of 64 may wind up pretty wimpy.<\/p>\n<p>Here are your radars to follow along&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/builder.zoomradar.net\/zoomradar_weather_map\/weather_page.php?key=dlFZs5IY4VCw7bK\" width=\"560\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" seamless=\"seamless\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sirocco.accuweather.com\/nx_mosaic_640x480_public\/sir\/inmaSIRKY_.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Monday is a very windy day as a fall cold front slams in from the west during the evening.

This should bring an end to the growing season for much of our region as a HUGE dip in the jet stream shows up right on top of us. At times, various models have been trying to deepen this trough enough to spit out some flakes very close to the state.<\/p>\n<p>The Canadian is the latest model to do just that&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Canadian-8.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-44155\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Canadian-8.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"984\" height=\"808\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That actually does bring some flake action in here.

This is a straight up winter looking pattern that, I think, has a a shot at bringing the threat for flakes in here late the following week. Does this look like something from October?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/GFS-11.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-44157\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/GFS-11.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"984\" height=\"808\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The European doesn&#8217;t go out as far as the GFS does so it only picks up the first system being shown above.
