Kentucky — A damp, foggy start greets Louisville this morning as dense fog drifts across southern Indiana and north-central Kentucky. Drivers along I-65, I-64, and I-71 are urged to slow down and use low beams, as visibility may drop to less than a quarter mile in spots. The National Weather Service in Louisville warns that fog will linger through mid-morning before light rain and scattered showers begin easing east.

Temperatures remain mild — in the lower 50s — as a weak cold front moves through the Ohio Valley. The air will clear gradually by late afternoon, revealing drier skies and calmer winds. Sunday brings a bright, sunny rebound, with highs near 57°F, perfect for outdoor plans or pre-Thanksgiving travel.

The calm won’t last long. By Monday night, another system sweeps in from the southwest, spreading steady rain and possible thunderstorms across Kentucky and southern Indiana. Rain chances climb sharply to 90% by Tuesday, creating wet roads for early Thanksgiving travelers across the region.

Looking ahead, national models show a powerful cold front forming mid- to late next week. The system could bring heavy snow to the northern U.S. and below-average temperatures east of the Mississippi by Thanksgiving weekend — a true winter weather tease as the holiday season begins.

  • Sunday: Sunny, high 57°F.
