A Hint Of Fall With A Big Announcement!

Hello everyone and welcome back to the blog! This weekend has been a great one weather wise so far and will continue to be for the last half of the weekend. Temperatures have and will be in the mid and upper 70s for highs with low temperatures in the mid to low 50s making the feel like a beautiful fall day!

This weather came after a day of strong to severe thunderstorms followed by a cold front moving in from Canada directly to our north allowing for this beautiful and cool weather to move into our area. This great weather will not last too long, by Monday temperatures will return into the low 80s and by Wednesday temperatures may reach 85 degrees. Still thats alot better than having several days in the mid 90s ;).

I also have a announcement to make concerning my future predicting the winter weather. Some of you may know that over the past 2 years I have predicted school closings due to winter weather correctly. There has been alot of thought into this decision into if I will do so again this year. I will be trying to balance going to college and having a job this fall and winter so that may be alot to handle, but I will put what people call the "legendary streak" at stake by predicting those snow days again this year. I'm going to be a busy weather dude but hey I wouldn't have it any other way ;).

Have a great day everyone and weekend. Take care! :)

Hot And Dry Today, Storms Return For The Weekend

Hello everyone and thanks for stopping by the blog on this hot and dry afternoon! I haven't been posting much lately I've had alot going on but hopefully I can now post like I usally do! Anyways here's some topics I'll cover: Threat for severe thunderstorms late weekend, and Tropical Depression Five.

Let's start with today's weather. Rest of today looks great but hot, no rain looks to affect the area so we'll stay dry today and tonight. Overnight some models are picking up on a cluster of thunderstorms developing to our northwest and moving in here on our Friday. Showers and thunderstorms should move in here in waves. Saturday there is a chance of thunderstorms as well but I think our best bet is tomorrow.

This is the NAM model and this shows Saturday morning. Do you see the blue line coming down from Canada? Thats a cold front and it looks to move in here on Sunday and bring a severe weather outbreak across much of  the Ohio Valley and that does include the state of Kentucky. I'll be watching this one carefully.

The last topic is Tropical Depression Five. This depression is located thousands and thousands of miles from here. Take a look on where it's located:

Tropical Depression Five is moving to the west at 20mph. At this rate by Wednesday or so it should be very close to the Yucatan in Mexico. As of now there is no threat to the United States Gulf Coast, but we'll still have to watch it as it can grow into a hurricane and turn towards the gulf.

I'll have more in the coming days untill then take a look at my facebook at any time for local weather. Have a great Thursday everyone and take care! :)
