Ahead of the cold front some isolated showers could pop up today.  Any showers today will not be severe and are unlikely to even have thunder.

Meanwhile, temperatures and the humidity will remain high one more day with actual temperatures in the low 90’s, but feels like temperatures will go a few degrees warmer.  Your umbrella could see double duty as rain and sun protection today.

Today’s weak “cold” front will mainly knock the humidity down as a high pressure system moves above us.   Highs will still reach the upper 80’s tomorrow and Friday, but at least these days will feel like the upper 80’s instead of 100 degrees.

Expect each morning to start with temperatures near 70.  By Friday night, moisture will increase return the atmosphere to the usual summer humidity soup typical for Kentucky.

Sunday and Monday stay just as hot, but rain looks even more likely, especially in the afternoons.
