First Alert Weather Forecast

This brief break from rainfall was a much needed one for folks that have been water-logged here recently. It is only a break though and more rounds of storms will be heading our way Sunday.

Over the next several days, rounds of showers and thunderstorms will dive in on Kentucky from the northwest. Each of these clusters could bring damaging winds and very heavy rains. Two things we definitely do not want to see around here after the recent severe weather.

Here's a breakdown of what I am thinking:

SUNDAY
-Rounds of thunderstorms will sweep into Kentucky on Sunday morning. These initial storms could have some strong to severe characteristics.
-More storms will develop into Sunday afternoon and evening. With the current state of the atmosphere... many of these storms could be quite strong.

MONDAY
-Clusters will again develop north of Kentucky.
-By Midday and well into the nighttime hours we'll see these rounds push through Kentucky.
-The primary threats here will be damaging winds, heavy rains and a small risk or tornadoes. When you get a complex like this together... it's easy to get storms to rotate.

The severe chances will likely continue into Tuesday and beyond. At this point, it is too early to place specifics. However, the pattern doesn't change and it looks like even more rounds of heavy rain and strong storms will be here again.
