Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central Kentucky and Southern Indiana
National Weather Service Louisville KY
323 AM EDT Mon Jul 14 2025

.DISCUSSION...A rinse and repeat forecast is expected for the upcoming
week and into next weekend. Look for scattered shower and thunderstorm
chances each day, especially in the afternoon and evening. Temperatures
will also be similar each day with highs generally in the upper 80s to
low 90s, and mild overnight lows mostly in the low to mid 70s.
Thunderstorms are largely expected to be of the garden variety, however
locally heavy rainfall, gusty winds, and lightning will be common with
the stronger storms.
