Good Sunday, everyone. Deadly flash flooding impacted many areas of Kentucky Saturday as our incredibly wet pattern continues. This pattern calms down later today with heat and humidity waiting on deck for your 4th of July week.<\/p>\n

Let’s begin with the incredible rains of recent days.<\/p>\n

Some areas of the state picked up close to 10″ of rain in under a 24 hour period from late Friday into Saturday. As you would imagine, this cased major flooding issues in many areas with central Kentucky seeing the brunt of the devestation.<\/p>\n

Some showers and storms will be noted again today, especially early on. This is when another round of heavy rain producing thunderstorms is oriented from northwest to southeast across parts of central and south-central Kentucky. Flash flooding will again be possible in these areas.<\/p>\n

The severe storms threat is pretty much finished with the remaining threat action to our east and southeast. Here’s the Severe Weather Outlook from the Storm Prediction Center…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A scattered storm or two will go up this afternoon as temps start to climb.<\/p>\n

This sets the stage for heat and humidity building into the region for the week ahead. The incredibly wet ground will combine with the green, lush vegetation to tame the temps just a bit. On the flip side, that same wet ground is going to add to the already tropical humidity levels, giving us dangerous heat indces.<\/p>\n

High temps from 90-95 show up with heat index numbers ranging from 100-105.<\/p>\n

Those numbers flex even more on Tuesday…<\/p>\n

Temps and heat index numbers will drop later in the week into the 4th of July Weekend as the chance for scattered storms increase. This animation from the GFS runs from Wednesday through Sunday…<\/p>\n
