Highs this afternoon will be very similar to what we had on Saturday as this pattern remains stuck in neutral.<\/p>\n<p>While our weather is amazing, the same can&#8217;t be said along the east coast as a powerful nor&#8217;easter continues to slam these areas with flooding, heavy rains, beach erosion and gusty winds. This thing is impressive on satellite&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.star.nesdis.noaa.gov\/GOES19\/ABI\/SECTOR\/eus\/07\/GOES19-EUS-07-1000x1000.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Some of the clouds from that may show up across far eastern Kentucky as the center backs to the west a bit today and Monday. Otherwise, it&#8217;s a pretty awesome sky around here as temps slowly climb Monday and Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>We should reach the 80s for Wednesday and Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Those temps are ahead of a potent storm system spinning slowly across the Plains States. Part of this system will be from what&#8217;s left of Major Hurricane Polo that&#8217;s in the eastern Pacific. This heads toward Mexico over the next few days&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nhc.noaa.gov\/storm_graphics\/EP17\/refresh\/EP172026_5day_cone+png\/251449_5day_cone.png\" alt=\"cone graphic\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The hurricane models take the remnant low from this deep into the Southern Plains states before it merges with another system dropping in from the northwest&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Hurricane-Models.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-78934\" src=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Hurricane-Models.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1170\" height=\"860\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Hurricane-Models.png 1170w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Hurricane-Models-300x221.png 300w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Hurricane-Models-1024x753.png 1024w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Hurricane-Models-768x565.png 768w, https:\/\/kyweathercenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Hurricane-Models-1080x794.png 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Some of that moisture can make it in here ahead of a deep trough diving in by the weekend.

Maybe.<\/p>\n<p>This trough will also bring in our first chance for some frost. All of this may very well be followed up by another shot of real deal fall chill a few days later.
