Jackson, KY – Residents across Kentucky can expect a rainy start to the week, with temperatures staying unseasonably warm before colder conditions arrive by the weekend. Monday’s forecast calls for steady rain and patchy fog, impacting morning and evening commutes. Drivers are urged to slow down and exercise caution, particularly on roadways like KY-15 and US-421 where visibility may be reduced.
According to the National Weather Service, Monday’s high will reach 63°F, followed by another round of evening showers and cooler overnight temperatures dipping to 46°F. The wet weather will persist into Tuesday, though skies are expected to clear gradually. Winds will remain light, but roads may still be slick, so travelers should allow extra time for morning trips.
By midweek, temperatures will begin to drop, with Wednesday seeing highs in the low 60s before a cold front sweeps through. Rain showers will linger early Wednesday but taper off overnight. Thursday offers a brief reprieve, bringing partly sunny skies and highs near 46°F.
Heading into Friday, a significant shift is expected as colder air moves in. Highs will hover in the mid-40s, and a 30% chance of snow is forecasted overnight into Saturday. Accumulation remains uncertain, but residents should prepare for slippery surfaces and potential delays, particularly in higher elevations.
Kentuckians are advised to stay updated on changing conditions and plan for winter weather impacts later in the week. Follow the National Weather Service for live updates and consider winterizing vehicles and homes ahead of the colder temperatures.
