We continue to deal with all kinds of tropical humidity, steamy temps and scattered storms. This is a pattern locked in through early next week before we change it up by the time we hit August.<\/p>\n<p>Temps out there today are in similar territory to what we had on Thursday. Highs across central and eastern Kentucky are generally in the upper 80s to low 90s with a heat index of 95-100. The western half of the state is sweating even more with temps 90-95 and a heat index of 105-110. The chance for a storm or two to go up is there and that can impact temps for some.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday and Sunday look similar to today in terms of temps with a little more in the way of scattered showers and storms. The more storms we can get, the lower the temps and heat index numbers during the afternoon hours.<\/p>\n<p>You can see these showers and storms going up from later today through Monday&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/GFS-1-1.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-71974\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/GFS-1-1.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"984\" height=\"808\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Temps Tuesday and Wednesday may be even steamier than what we have out there today as we gear up for a strong cold front to sweep in at the end of the month.
