It's the first weekend of summer with the solstice occurring at 10:42 Friday night. We'll be enjoying the longest daylight hours of the year this weekend with nearly 15 hours worth. The weekend will also be one of the first since the beginning of April that will be dry both days with above normal temperatures. Saturday will push 90 with enough humidity you'll notice it. Sunday we'll be getting into the muggies with highs sneaking up to about 90 or so.

As expected, the risk for severe weather has increased late today and this evening. An enhanced risk is from Lexington north and west. The line will be arriving in central Kentucky mid evening with damaging winds the most likely impact. However, keep in mind that all modes of severe weather are on the table. The line will be weakening, but still strong, in eastern Kentucky late this evening.

There is still a heavy rain potential this evening with a Flood Watch in eastern Kentucky. Waves of tropical type thunderstorms will continue to produce torrential downpours during the evening. The storms will die down after midnight. We'll see another day or 2 of strong storms with severe weather possible tomorrow evening. Before the severe weather threat, there will be more storms around the area that can also produce heavy rain.

The weather pattern has begun to change. We've gotten rid of anything cool for the foreseeable future. We still have lots of rain to deal with this week, and some of that will be heavy. We're looking at averages of 1 to 2 inches, but there will be pockets where rainfall may exceed 3 inches this week. The rain chances will begin to decrease late this week. Starting Friday, we are looking at a dry pattern beginning.

The weekend has arrived and just like nearly every weekend since the beginning of April, the weather is going to be less than stellar. We've had one 'good' weekend where it was actually warm and dry, and that was back in mid April. Since then, the weekends have either been cool, wet, or sometimes both. A slow moving low will bring rounds of rain and storms throughout the weekend. In the muggy tropical air mass, heavy downpours are possible too.

Following from the last post-the cell we tracked across western Fayette County died out north of Lexington but left a boundary behind. A line of strong storms merged from the south and led to intenisfication with lightning and torrential rain in Fayette and Bourbon counties #kywx https://t.co/f9TThDrNg1
