Central and Eastern Kentucky can expect a return to summer-like weather over the weekend, with temperatures and humidity levels on the rise. After a comfortable week, the region will see a weak frontal system stay to the southwest, keeping showers and storm chances at a minimum.

Weekend Forecast

Saturday is expected to be mainly dry, with afternoon highs in the mid-80s and a bit more humidity. However, by Sunday, hot and humid conditions will return, with afternoon highs climbing into the upper 80s. The heat index will make it feel even hotter, so it’s essential to stay cool during the hottest part of the day.

A weak cold front is expected to move through the region on Tuesday, bringing a chance of scattered showers and storms. While most locations may remain dry, there is a potential for a few strong storms. After the front passes, the weather should quiet down, with afternoon highs backing down into the mid to upper 80s by the end of the week.
