Deja vu Weather

It's really going to fill like deja vu out there over the next couple of days as we keep scattered showers and the occasional thunderstorm in the forecast through the end of your shortened work week. Here's a look at local radar to see if you have rain heading towards you.


Our pesky upper level low continues to chill out over the Ohio Valley. As I mentioned yesterday until it leaves the area or falls to pieces we will keep at least a chance of scattered showers in the forecast.


Forecast Discussion:

So at least for the next couple of days, weather should be fairly straight forward across the southern part of the Bluegrass State. Our upper level low hangs out until around Friday bringing us chances of scattered showers off and on throughout each day, mainly in the afternoon hours. If we can keep the cloud cover and rain away until after around 3 or 4 PM each day, our highs should make it to right around 80... if they move in and stick around a little while I think mid to upper 70's for highs. Dense fog could develop if we clear out after having rain in the afternoon like yesterday.

Now comes the fun part of the forecast with the weekend and beyond. A powerful low pressure system looks to be moving into the nations heartland this weekend and then try to cut off and become semi-stationary. The question is when does the cold front associated with it move in to effect our weather. The GFS and Euro are in decent agreement, while the poor Canadian is out in the left field. Here's a look at where they have the low come Sunday morning.

GFS


Euro


Canadian

The GFS and Euro both have the low over Nebraska Sunday morning, while the Canadian is showing it up over Canada with the trough digging in to the Ohio Valley. I'm still continuing to lean more towards the GFS and Euro solution for now... which would like me we will hold of the bulk of the showers till after the weekend.

That's all I have for now, be sure to follow me on Twitter @WxManShane! Take care!
