LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A complex of thunderstorms has entered the WHAS11 viewing area. While the tornado threat is diminishing for much of our area, storms still could producer strong wind and heavy rain through midnight. A flood watch is in effect through 8 am Thursday. The farther to the southwest you live in Kentucky, the higher the threat of severe storms.
The overall severe weather concern will come to a halt by midnight tonight as the storms will push southward. Left behind will only be some light rainfall for locations south of the Bluegrass and Western Kentucky Parkways. Low temperatures will stick to the balmy middle 60s with plenty of humidity.
Here comes the cold front! Drier air, mixed with a westerly breeze and an array of sun and clouds comes our way for tomorrow afternoon as well as Friday. We will hold onto a quiet pattern to close out the week with more sun and clouds on Friday. A slight chance for a passing rain shower is in the forecast on Friday afternoon and some light rain may arrive Saturday afternoon. Otherwise, plan on a quiet weekend ahead!
Monday marks the first day of practice for golfers at the PGA Championships and our forecast calls for comfortable temperatures and a slight chance for hit or miss showers Monday and Tuesday.
