Good Saturday, folks. If it’s a weekend it must mean thunderstorms in Kentucky! We have additional rounds of storms rolling across the state and some of these could be strong to severe, and put down torrential rains. Sound familiar?<\/p>\n

I don’t anticipate these storms being nearly as powerful as the storms of the past few weeks but that doesn’t mean we can’t have some issues.<\/p>\n

Storms fire up in western Kentucky early today with the greatest storm threat developing there this afternoon and rolling to the east. That complex of storms could bring some local high winds and hail.<\/p>\n

For that reason, the Storm Prediction Center has a Marginal Risk to Slight Risk out for much of the state today…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s your breakdown of the individual threats for the day\u2026<\/p>\n

DAMAGING WIND<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

LARGE HAIL<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

TORNADO THREAT<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

These storms may also put down enough rain to cause local flash flooding for some areas, so keep that in mind.<\/p>\n

A lower end risk will then be noted across eastern Kentucky on Sunday…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Some really nice weather then blows in for Monday and Tuesday. That’s ahead of a few more systems on the way for the end of the week into next weekend. Those will bring additional waves of showers and storms back in here…<\/p>\n

This setup could once again lead to some stronger storms and torrential rains. It’s a setup that we have to keep a close eye on as this stormier than normal and wetter than normal summer rolls on.<\/p>\n
