Monday Morning Bowling Green Weather Update

Real Time Bowling Green Weather Radar:


Today 5/16 – Mostly Cloudy; Isolated Showers – High 65° / Tonight – Scattered Showers – Low 53°

Good Monday morning! Chilly temperatures will continue this morning under mostly cloudy skies. A ridging pattern will set up for a brief time during the day ahead of the next shortwave trough. However, I don’t think we’ll be able to shake the clouds away. Isolated showers will also be possible throughout the day. Highs will be around 65°.

A shortwave trough will begin to approach the region during the overnight hours. A few scattered showers will likely develop ahead of this shortwave as divergence occurs aloft. Lows will be around 53°.

Tuesday 5/17 – Scattered Showers – High 63° / Tues Night – Scattered Showers Ending – Low 52°

The shortwave will continue into the region on Tuesday. Scattered showers will continue throughout the day. This will limit instability, keeping thunderstorms less of a concern. A  warm front will move through during the afternoon hours. However, this will have little impact on temperatures due to the scattered showers. Highs will be around 63°.

Scattered showers will eventually end as the shortwave moves out of the region on Tuesday night. Lows will be around 52°.

Wednesday 5/18 – Partly Cloudy – High 67° / Wed Night – Mostly Clear – Low 50°

High pressure will move into the region after the shortwave passes. This will leave us with  a rather nice day! Partly cloudy skies should diminish in the afternoon to mostly clear skies. Highs will also recover into the mid to upper 60s.
