  • Kentucky Weather March 5 Midday - 42° Above Normal
    Mar 5 2026
    Good afternoon. Kentucky. I'm Aaron Jolly. If you stepped outside this morning, you felt that damp 61 degrees with a quarter inch of rain from overnight. The rain's wrapping up, but here's where it gets interesting. In the next 24 hours. Kentucky's running two completely different weather shows today. Up north around Louisville and Lexington? Showers and thunderstorms roll through around noon with a 90 percent chance. You could see three-quarters to an inch of rain before this clears. Highs hit 69 degrees with southwest winds gusting to 24 miles an hour. It's breezy and wet. Head south and you're in a different world. South Central Kentucky sees storms wrap up by early afternoon, then mostly cloudy skies take over. You'll climb to 75 degrees — that's 42 degrees above normal for early March. Down in Eastern Kentucky? Even warmer at 79 degrees with just a slight chance of late afternoon storms. Partly sunny and calm. Tonight brings scattered storms mainly north of the Bluegrass. Lows stay mild in the upper 50s statewide. Friday is when things get wild. Sunshine returns and temperatures explode into the low 80s across most of Kentucky. That's 42 degrees to 42 degrees above normal and threatening daily records. Louisville could hit 80. Lexington near 80. Even northern counties reach the low 80s. Saturday brings the payback. A strong cold front sweeps through with widespread storms, some potentially severe with damaging winds. Highs in the mid 70s before the front arrives. Sunday dries out nicely with partly sunny skies and mid 60s. Monday stays pleasant before more rain chances return Tuesday and Wednesday. If you've got outdoor plans this weekend. Friday's your window. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

  • Kentucky Weather March 3 Evening - Flood Watch
    Mar 4 2026
    Good evening. Kentucky. I'm Aaron Jolly. Folks, that rain you heard tapping on your roof last night? That was just the warm up act. A warm front is parked right along the Ohio River. And it's acting like a revolving door for moisture. Tonight it slides back south. And drags the real show with it. In the next 24 hours. Right now we're sitting at a pleasant 61 degrees under partly cloudy skies. Enjoy this quiet window. It's closing fast. Showers push back into North Central Kentucky after 9 P.M. Central Kentucky picks up rain overnight. South Central and Eastern Kentucky stay drier a bit longer, but by Wednesday morning, everybody's in it. And Wednesday morning. That's when things get interesting. North Central Kentucky wakes up to thunderstorms peaking around 7 A.M., with highs reaching 70 degrees. Central Kentucky hits 69 with storms rolling through midday. Now head south toward Bowling Green. South Central climbs to a muggy 77 degrees under heavy clouds. Over in Eastern Kentucky, you're looking at 74 with scattered showers. Keep that umbrella within arm's reach Wednesday. Some storms could pack hail and gusty winds, especially north of the Mountain Parkway. The ground is already soaked, so standing water on roads during downpours is almost guaranteed. Slow down through those low spots. Looking ahead, the week reads like a weather novel with plot twists on every page. Thursday brings another round of storms near 70 degrees. Friday cranks the dial to near record warmth. We're talking upper 70s to low 80s. In March. Then Saturday's cold front crashes the party with widespread storms, some possibly severe. Sunday calms everything down. Upper 60s, dry skies. One more thing worth smiling about. We're gaining over two minutes of daylight every day now. Spring equinox is just two weeks out. Friday's temperatures might just beat it there. I'll be tracking those Wednesday storms all night. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
