Good Monday, everyone. No, this is not a recording… Rounds of showers and storms are rumbling through Kentucky again today, bringing more flash flooding. Some of these storms may also be strong to severe.<\/p>\n

A boundary is still oriented from northwest to southeast across Kentucky and that’s providing the focal point for these waves of showers and storms. Torrential rains will likely cause additional flash flooding issues, especially across central and eastern Kentucky.<\/p>\n

A Flood Watch continues for much of this area today…<\/p>\n

\"Watches\"<\/p>\n

Here are the current warnings…<\/p>\n

\"Warnings\"<\/p>\n

Just like Sunday, some of the storms may pack a bit of a punch, but the severe threat is a bit lower and farther south compared to Yesterday. Here’s Today’s Severe Weather Outlook from the Storm Prediction Center…<\/p>\n

This boundary will still spit out a few showers and storms into Tuesday as it slowly becomes more diffuse. To the south and west of his boundary, it’s the swamp with a heat index today around 105 in the west. That looks to be with us again Tuesday with much better air in the central and east…<\/p>\n

Wednesday keeps the west backing as the rest of the state comes up a bit…<\/p>\n

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

Nothing changes out west for Thursday with areas of central and eastern Kentucky with a heat index in the mid and upper 90s…<\/p>\n

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

Notice the cooler spots in the east? That’s because isolated showers and storms go up during the afternoon and evening. By Friday, more in the way of scattered showers and storms join in on our steam bath and those look to go through the weekend into early next week.<\/p>\n

Here’s the GFS from Friday morning through Tuesday…<\/p>\n

The EURO has a similar look…<\/p>\n
