Storms have moved into the Tri-State this evening with periodic heavy rainfall as well as gusty winds. There has been a lot of lightning at times with these storms through Northern Kentucky and southeast Indiana. These storms will continue to move through the Tri-State as we move through the overnight.
Very heavy downpours could lead to some localized flooding due to runoff at times tonight. Watch for flooded streets, especially because it has been so dry as of late. There's a marginal risk for severe storms this evening and overnight in south central Indiana as we could see a few storms with large hail and damaging wind gusts. The impact here in the Tri-State for that looks minimal.
We will have more scattered showers and isolated storms overnight as the energy of the system rolls closer. Temperatures tonight should only fall into the low 60s. Storms tonight will be slow moving, which increases that threat of flooding.
Hit or miss showers and storms will be part of the forecast for Wednesday all day long. We should see scattered showers for the morning drive with some downpours limiting visibility and causing some traffic issues. There will be a brief break in the late morning hours before more rounds of showers and storms develop. Along with this, we have a a low end threat for severe weather as well. The SPC has our area in a "Marginal Risk" for severe weather. A few storms with damaging wind gusts and large hail will be possible.
Rain totals will range from a few tenths to potentially a half inch for most areas. There could also be some higher totals of 1 to 2 inches in some spots where we see the strongest storms.
From there, we have lingering showers into Thursday and then wrapping up later in the day. Friday will bring the start of drier air and that will last into the weekend. Temperatures will warm up as well with highs both days into the low to mid 80s.
