Good Saturday, folks. It’s another warm day in the bluegrass state as we track a strong cold front in from the west. This front brings the chance for a few strong to severe storms into Sunday before cold air crashes in for a brief stay.<\/p>\n

Much of the state will see temps in the 75-80 degree range this afternoon with a mix of sun and clouds. There’s a small threat for a storm to go up, but most of the day is dry.<\/p>\n

A few storms may fire up in western Kentucky later in the evening and overnight. I can’t rule out a strong or severe storm, but the greatest threat today is to our west. Here’s our Saturday Severe Weather Outlook from the Storm Prediction Center…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The cold front plows across the state on Sunday and should bring a few strong storms to central and eastern Kentucky. There’s another low-end risk for severe storms in these areas…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Colder winds blow in behind this front and some flakes will fly to the north of the Ohio River and into the highest WV mountains…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Temps crash all day on Sunday, setting up an interesting gradient for Monday. Temps in the north and northeast may struggle to 50 while the southwest gets deep into the 60s. Check out the model forecast highs for Monday…<\/p>\n

Temps turn much warmer from west to east Tuesday and then really take off by Wednesday and Thursday. Highs in the upper 70s to low 80s are likely…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That will be followed by what looks like a severe weather setup later Friday into Saturday, with another cold blast to follow…<\/p>\n

The last week of the month looks pretty darn chilly. Slow your roll, green thumbs!<\/p>\n

I will try to throw you another update later today. Until then, I have you all set to track the late day severe threat into the west…<\/p>\n
