Special update issued August 20 at 4:50 a.m.
The line of storms I’ve been tracking is coming onto the plateau this morning right on schedule. It’s going to be a very wet and thundery morning commute. Please drive safely.
These storm have packed a punch to our west overnight. Thankfully, they are weakening as they approach the plateau. Still, very gusty winds, frequent lightning, and very heavy rainfall can be expected with these storms this morning. I still can’t rule an isolated severe storm with this stuff. There is a severe storm warning for Monticello, KY, just across the Ky border but that part of the line is moving east.
The risk are the same as last night’s last update. The greatest risk is a damaging wind gust and flash flooding.
My concern meter is also unchanged. I’ll keep it parked here for now.
