7/23 - 5pm - A Few Sprinkles Around

A few rain showers and even a couple thunderstorms are making their way through Kentuckiana ahead of a warm front. These are a bit unexpected since dry air was forecast to be in the area with the passage of the front, but enough moisture worked its way in to generate a spotty radar picture today:



As drier air works its way back into the area tonight, these showers will dissipate and dry conditions will remain until at least Tuesday afternoon, when some afternoon thunderstorms look possible ahead of a cold front. Highs in the low to mid 80's are a good bet starting tomorrow and should last until the cold front comes through early Wednesday. Temperatures after the cold front's passage should hold in the 60's and 70's.

The latest Kentucky Derby forecast looks a bit better temperature-wise, but I'm still seeing rain as a possibility. Hopefully we'll see 70 degrees and dry weather instead of the 70 and wet weather I'm seeing on the GFS model right now.
