Heavy rains possible this week

The National Weather Service in Louisville, KY, is warning that the latest forecast models continue to indicate an increasing threat of heavy rainfall and possible flooding issues later this week and into next weekend. A cold front will approach the region by late week and then is forecast to stall out across the area. As this occurs, there is the possibility that multiple waves of heavy rainfall and thunderstorms may transverse the region.

Currently, soil conditions are saturated across the region due to recent rainfall events. With this additional rainfall expected later this week, flooding problems are likely to develop, possibly very quickly in some areas. The highest risk of flooding will be in areas that are low-lying and have very poor drainage. In addition, area low water crossings will be under the threat of flooding.
