Low pressure moves from the Mississippi Valley into western Kentucky tonight and Tuesday. This winds up in the Great Lakes by Tuesday night.
Showers develop in the west early today and these will slowly push eastward into the evening hours.
Rain and some thunderstorms then increase from southwest to northeast tonight and Tuesday.
I can’t rule out a few strong storms across southcentral and southeastern Kentucky Tuesday.
Rain tapers to scattered showers Tuesday night into Wednesday morning as the low pulls away.
Rainfall numbers should average .50 to 1.5′′ for many with some local 2′′ amounts possible.
Winds are a big player with this system with gusts of 40mph possible. There’s an outside shot of gusts to 50mph in the south and east.
The air behind this is chilly but not as cold as what it looked like a few days ago. That’s pushed back deeper into the weekend.
Wednesday stays in the 40s for much of the day for highs.
Thanksgiving Day looks mainly dry with temps deep into the 20s to start with afternoon highs in the upper 40s to low 50s.
