There you see all of the reports so far! I kept all of Kentucky in the text... but the graphic is geared more for the folks in Southeast KY.

The name of this post is one down and another to go...

Here's the general outlook for Friday.

Here's the probabilistic graphical representation.

What's this mean for us? At this point we stand a better chance of seeing severe weather than most in the slight risk area. Again, it looks like more strong storms with wind, hail, and tornadic activity coming our way!

Thursday looks like a wonderful day so get out and enjoy!

C-Ya Bye
