Todays set up.. Cold front sitting to our north west with us sitting in prime warm moist air just waiting for a reason to start climbing ...

With that in mind showers and thunderstorms are on the menu today. with training storms along and east of the I65 corridor. Shear looks to be minimal again today but precipwater numbers are up. so another day of heavy rainfall due to multiple showers and storms passing by bringing a flooding threat with it where the stronger cells move over the same areas as the day goes on. Some storms may become strong to isolated severe with breif damaging winds and small hail being the main threats.

Stay weather aware today and for the rest of the week as shower and storm chances are going to be around for the next few days.

05/19/2026

Showers and storms beginning to initiate across the bluegrass. most cells should remain sub severe some may get strong. general thinking is due to the windfields in place the training of storms will be more of a threat for its flooding potential Stay Weather Aware and dont drive onto flooded roadways....
