Good Saturday and welcome to a very active weather day across Kentucky. The risk for strong and severe thunderstorms will increase today and carry us into the overnight hours. This is all part of the same storm system lashing the plains and midwest over the past few days.<\/p>\n
Here’s a rundown of how things may play out today.<\/p>\n
– A TORNADO WATCH is out parts of western Kentucky until 4am CDT. A line of severe weather will be ongoing in this region very early this morning.<\/p>\n
– That line will approach central Kentucky from the west around or shortly after daybreak. This should be in weakening fashion, but will still need to be monitored.<\/p>\n
– We need to watch for rain cooled boundaries floating around today. These may fire up additional thunderstorms as the day wears on and any storm can quickly go severe.<\/p>\n
– A squall line of storms will sweep eastward across the state this evening into tonight.<\/p>\n
– The main threat from today\u2019s storms will be damaging winds and large hail. Isolated tornadoes will be possible\u2026 especially across central and western parts of the region.<\/p>\n
– Torrential rainfall is a big concern through early Sunday. Parts of the region could top the 3″ mark… mainly in the west and central. This could cause flooding problems.<\/p>\n
