Some Kentucky counties expected to see over an inch of rain | Impact Alert Day

A swath of rain and a few rumbles of thunder will march into our neck of the woods Wednesday night through much of the day Thursday.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Another band of showers and some thundershowers will arrive late in the day and into the evening hours Wednesday. 

Most spots west of I-65 will pick up the rain beginning around 4 p.m. or 5 p.m. Wednesday with spots along and east of I-65 will receive the rain beginning at sunset and beyond. Expect scattered to widespread rain all night Wednesday with some additional showers into the day Thursday. The rain will begin to taper off during the midday and afternoon hours Thursday.

We are not tracking any severe weather with this storm system but additional rainfall already on top of recent rain from last weekend will make for ponding of water very quickly. Keep this in mind for the morning rush hour commute on Thursday.
