Good Wednesday to one and all. We continue to track rain and very cool temps across Kentucky and surrounding areas. This is part of a pattern that continues to trend cooler and wetter than normal here in the first half of May.<\/p>\n

Rain out there today is more prominent across the south and southeast with isolated showers in the north and west. A wave of low pressure rolls along this boundary later today into early Thursday morning with the chance for more rain in some of these same areas.<\/p>\n

Temps today may not get out of the 50s for many. If you catch some clearing by the afternoon, temps can reach the low 60s in a few spots. Similar temps will be noted on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Friday looks really good with highs reaching the upper 60s and low 70s with partly sunny skies.<\/p>\n

Winds gust up with some late day clouds ahead of a fast-moving system that brings some showers and storms Friday night into the start of Saturday…<\/p>\n

That moves away very quickly with a great rest of your Saturday taking shape. Highs reach the 70s on a gusty southwest wind with partly to mostly sunny skies.<\/p>\n

Another system brings some showers and storms rolling across the state on Mother’s Day Sunday…<\/p>\n

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

While this shouldn’t be all day rain in any one area, you will want to have some backup plans for any cookout you have planned for mom.<\/p>\n

Temps come back down behind the Sunday system with below normal numbers into next week. Check out the well below normal week two of May…<\/p>\n

As warmer air fights back during the second half of May and early June, the pattern is likely to turn pretty stormy and may very well get active with severe storms. The good part about all this is the chance for well above normal rains through the first few weeks of Meteorological Summer. The EURO Weeklies have a wet look…<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll have the latest on WKYT-TV and WKYT+. Until then, I leave you with the tools you need to track the rain and rumbles of thunder through the region\u2026<\/p>\n
