...Rounds of Widespread Rainfall Continue Through This Week...

An unsettled pattern of weather is expected through this week with
three separate storm systems expected to track through our region.
The first system will move through late Monday night through
Tuesday night, bringing a wintry mix across southern Indiana and
northern Kentucky. Mostly rain is expected across southern
Kentucky where 1 to 2" of rain could occur.

The second storm system is expected later Wednesday through
Wednesday night, and is expected to be mostly rain. An additional
1 to 2" of rain is expected with this system, especially across
central and southern KY once again. We`ll also have to keep in
mind how much additional liquid may still need to melt off from
the earlier snow across central and northern KY.

A third, and potentially the strongest, system then arrives
through Saturday through Sunday where 1 to 3" of rain is currently
forecast. Central and southern KY are currently expected to see
the higher totals out of this wave as well. Overall, total
rainfall amounts through next Sunday could range between 3 and 7"
across central and southern KY, with 2 to 3" expected across
southern Indiana and far north central KY.

With already saturated soils, and area rivers and streams
continuing to run high, these waves of rain will likely make flash
flood and river flood threats increase as we move through the
week. The river basins that stand the biggest threat of widespread
minor flooding, and perhaps higher impacts, would be the Green,
Rough, Rolling Fork, Cumberland, Kentucky, and Licking. The Ohio
River will also see notable rises with added rainfall and
contributions mostly from southern tributaries. Stay up to date of
the latest forecasts during this active and potentially impactful
stretch of weather.
