Good Wednesday to one and all. We continue to live in a rather tropical weather environment across Central and Eastern Kentucky. This tropical air will help fuel scattered showers and storms on a daily basis.

This is what happens when you have a flow coming straight out of the western Gulf of Mexico:

Daytime highs will range from the low and mid-80s Wednesday to the mid- and upper 80s Thursday and Friday. The muggy factor will be off the charts during this time.

Scattered storms will slowly ramp up as we go through the week and into the weekend. That’s when a cold front approaches from the northwest. That front might put on the brakes right on top of the region. The result would be additional rounds of scattered thunderstorms.

The GFS continues to point toward some substantial rain totals over the next week:

Let’s do a little storm tracking with what’s out there Wednesday:

Have a great Wednesday and take care.
