Outdoor activities are questionable for our Saturday. The morning looks okay with spotty, light showers. Then after 2 p.m. in SE Indiana and by 3-4 p.m. around Greater Cincinnati, heavy rain and isolated storms will start developing moving east across the Tri-State. Plus, strong winds gusting near 30 mph will be swirling.
Heavy rain for the the Greater Cincinnati area will continue for a few hours and this could lead to minor flooding, especially in parts of Northern Kentucky. One up to two inches of rain will fall in this area as other communities outside that zone will see much less, maybe a 1/2" - 3/4" of rainfall.
Additionally, the Storm Prediction Center has issued a "Marginal Risk" for severe weather over a small portion of Northern Kentucky. While I'm not looking for severe weather, this shows that it's not off the table with the isolated storms that we will see in the afternoon and evening.
Rain will continue overnight but likely shutdown for most by overnight or early on Sunday morning. The big news for Sunday will be the severe temperature drop. We'll fall from near 60 on Saturday to near 40 degrees! Later Sunday afternoon, northwest winds will be breezy and a few flurries will be possible as moisture gets picked up off the Great Lakes and developed over us.
