.DISCUSSION...
Rain showers are expected tonight as a cold front moves through
the region. However, rainfall amounts will range from a quarter to
half inch over southern Indiana, tapering down to less than a
tenth of an inch in south central Kentucky. Dry and cool weather
will follow Wednesday and Thursday under Canadian high pressure.
A shift to a summer-like pattern will bring another chance for
rain on Friday, with warm and breezy conditions this weekend.
