    Kentucky Weather 3/8 Midday - 35° Above Normal
    Mar 8 2026
    Good afternoon. Kentucky. I'm Matt Mullins. That rain you heard overnight? It's already packing its bags and heading east. A cold front swept through and dropped a third of an inch statewide, but here's the payoff — clearing skies and a serious warmup on deck. Eastern Kentucky might catch a few lingering sprinkles through early afternoon, but the rest of the state is drying out fast. Clouds break up west to east as high pressure slides in behind the front. Highs today hit the mid-60s statewide — 63 degrees in Louisville and Lexington, 65 in Bowling Green. Winds stay light out of the west around 6 miles an hour. Tonight drops to the low to mid-40s under mostly clear skies. Monday brings wall-to-wall sunshine and a jump to the low 70s. Louisville hits 73 degrees. Lexington 71. And southern Kentucky pushes 76. That's about 35 degrees above normal for early March. Perfect weather for a lunchtime walk if you ask me. But that warmth sets the stage for something bigger. Tuesday stays warm — mid to upper 70s — then Wednesday brings a strong storm system. Two weather systems phase together over the eastern U.S., creating a potent setup for severe thunderstorms Wednesday afternoon and evening. Damaging winds are the main threat. The Storm Prediction Center has highlighted Kentucky with a 15 percent severe risk. Behind that front? A sharp cooldown. Thursday's highs struggle to reach the upper 40s to low 50s — a 30-degree temperature crash from Wednesday. A few snow showers are even possible Thursday morning in eastern Kentucky. Friday rebounds to the 60s. Don't forget — clocks spring forward tonight. You lose an hour, but we're gaining daylight fast now. See you this evening.

    Mar 8 2026
    Good evening. Kentucky. I'm Michael Nally. That muggy air you felt yesterday? It's getting swept away. A cold front is barreling through Kentucky right now, kicking off a weekend of dramatic shifts. We've already picked up two-thirds of an inch of rain. While the heaviest downpours are winding down, this front isn't quite done with us yet. The front's final stand happens tonight in Eastern Kentucky. Showers and thunderstorms rumble through midnight—some spots could see another half-inch of rain. Lows stick to a balmy 59 degrees. That's 35 degrees above normal for early March. By Sunday, scattered rain lingers until 3 P.M., with highs near 69. Then. Bam. Sunshine takes over. And Monday hits 76 degrees. Down in Central Kentucky, you've got a slight chance of thunderstorms before 1 A.M. Lows hover in the upper 40s. Sunday brings sunshine and 63 degrees. But the real headline is Monday's high of 73. That's a full-on summer preview. The warmth sticks around Tuesday at 74 degrees. But Wednesday brings a reality check: thunderstorms and a 30-degree temperature drop by Thursday. South Central Kentucky is the lucky zone tonight. Just a slight chance of thunderstorms after 10 P.M., with lows near 49. Sunday looks mostly sunny and 66 degrees. Then Monday hits 76. But like the rest of the state. Wednesday's front means a crash back to the 50s by Thursday. North Central Kentucky sees a quieter night. Just a slight chance of rain showers before midnight, with lows around 44. Sunday's sunshine pushes you to 63. Then Monday leaps to 74. But again. Wednesday's front brings storms and a return to the 50s. The Ohio River at Mount Vernon is under a Flood Warning through next Saturday. If you're near the river, stay updated—turn around, don't drown. In We're in that classic early march tug-of-war, winter's last gasp versus spring's first surge. The spring equinox is just 13 days away. We're gaining 2 minutes and 29 seconds of daylight every day now. But as today proves. Kentucky weather doesn't do subtle. It does dramatic. So enjoy the warmth while it lasts. Because by Wednesday, you'll be digging out the jackets again. See you tomorrow.

    Kentucky Weather 3/7 Morning - Flood Warning Follies
    Mar 7 2026
    Good morning. Kentucky. I'm Aaron Jolly. Spring is teasing us today, folks. We’re waking up to a statewide average of 67 degrees. But don't get too comfortable. A cold front is barreling in, bringing a wild ride of thunderstorms and a temperature rollercoaster that’ll have you digging out a jacket by Sunday. North Central Kentucky is first in line. Thunderstorms fire up by 9 A.M., peaking around 1 P.M. With a guaranteed soaking. You'll see gusts to 32 miles an hour—enough to rattle the windows—before highs near 74 crash to 47 overnight. Sunday brings sunshine, but it feels like a different season with highs only in the mid-60s. Moving into Central Kentucky, storms roll in by late morning. The worst hits around 3 P.M. With gusts to 33 miles an hour. Temperatures starting near 76 tumble to 51 tonight. Sunday offers a brief, sunny break at 63 degrees, but keep that umbrella handy. South Central Kentucky sees the most intense action. Thunderstorms explode between 11 A.M. and 6 P.M., with heavy rain and gusts to 31 miles an hour. You'll hit 76 degrees today before dropping to 51 overnight. Sunday stays calmer, but the pattern repeats with more storms midweek. Over in Eastern Kentucky, it’s a tale of two halves. Morning fog gives way to scattered storms and highs near 81. Tonight gets weird—rain moves in as temps actually rise overnight to 63. Sunday stays wet with highs in the upper 60s. Looking ahead, this isn't a one-day wonder. We’ve got three more rounds of storms coming, including a potential severe setup Wednesday. By Thursday, highs plummet to the 40s and 50s—a 30-degree drop from today. The Ohio River is under a Flood Warning through next weekend, so keep an eye on rising water. Enjoy today's warmth—well above normal for early March—because the pendulum swings hard. Charge your phones before tonight's storms. See you tomorrow. See you this afternoon.
