Kentucky wakes up under a clear, cold sky, and frost coats cars across Louisville. Temperatures hover near 22°F late this morning, and any leftover moisture on bridges can refreeze quickly. That freeze-thaw cycle can create slick patches on elevated stretches of I-64 and I-65 before the sun fully warms the pavement.
According to the National Weather Service in Louisville, skies turn partly sunny today with highs reaching 45°F. South winds increase to 10 to 15 mph, with gusts near 28 mph. Conditions stay dry through the afternoon, but clouds thicken tonight as the next system approaches.
A slight chance of showers develops toward early Wednesday, then rain becomes more likely Wednesday night. Highs climb to 57°F Wednesday, with rain chances rising to 60 percent after dark. Expect wet roads and reduced visibility for the evening drive.
Showers continue into Thursday, mainly before early afternoon. Highs settle near 50°F as a northeast breeze filters in. While temperatures remain above freezing, steady rain could pond on low-lying roads. Use caution during heavier bursts.
Sunshine returns Friday with highs near 57°F. Saturday surges to the mid-60s, delivering strong spring vibes across Jefferson County. Outdoor plans look favorable heading into the weekend.
Looking into early next week, temperatures trend above normal with periodic shower chances. Broader patterns point toward a milder stretch building across the Ohio Valley into the 6- to 10-day window.
