It&#8217;s another very warm day across Kentucky as we watch a system rolling our way from this west. This can touch off scattered storms this afternoon, with the potential for a few strong to severe storms in the west. This is part of an increasingly active pattern likely to carry us through next week.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s temps are generally in the 75-80 degree range, but a few spots may top out in the low 80s. A few storms may fire up this afternoon across central and western parts of the state.<\/p>\n<p>The main line of storms will develop and move into western Kentucky this evening and then it moves through the rest of the state tonight and early Thursday. The Storm Prediction Center is highlighting areas of western Kentucky in a low-end severe storms risk&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spc.noaa.gov\/public\/state\/images\/KY_swody1.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That line weakens as it moves into eastern Kentucky Thursday. Skies will clear behind this as winds gust up around the upper low spinning to our northwest. This can also crank out a few more scattered storms across central and eastern Kentucky. As of now, the SPC isn&#8217;t overly excited with the severe potential&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spc.noaa.gov\/public\/state\/images\/KY_swody2.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once that blows through, Friday looks like a windy and very warm day.
