It&#8217;s another active weather day as torrential rain producing showers and storms rolling across Kentucky and this pattern is just getting started. Rounds of storms will increase, bringing an increase in the potential for flash flooding over the next week or so.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a quick breakdown of the where we are going:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A few showers and storms are out there today, increasing from west to east.<\/li>\n<li>Locally heavy rains may cause local flash flooding issues.<\/li>\n<li>Wednesday and Thursday turn really tropical feeling with more in the way of showers and storms.<\/li>\n<li>Another front drops in from the northwest and stalls across the Ohio Valley later this week into the weekend.<\/li>\n<li>Clusters of showers and storms should drop in from northwest to southeast through the region.<\/li>\n<li>A few of these storms may be strong or severe. These complexes of storms can sometimes become big wind makers into our region.<\/li>\n<li>With ample amount of moisture available, these storms may produce a lot of rain. The flash flood threat will be with us.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Can some tropical moisture from the Gulf get involved and up the ante on possible flash flooding around here?
