Kentucky rain taps steadily against windshields this morning, and fog softens the skyline over downtown Louisville. Light rain continues to fall, and visibility drops in patches along I-64 and I-65. Temperatures hover near 44 degrees, keeping roads wet but not icy.

According to the National Weather Service in Louisville, rain chances remain near 90 percent through late morning. Additional rainfall totals stay under a tenth of an inch. Patchy fog lingers as east winds hold near 5 mph. Drivers should slow down, especially near the Kennedy Bridge and low-lying stretches along the Ohio River.

Rain tapers by midday, but damp pavement will stick around into early afternoon. Highs reach near 52 degrees before cooler air slides in tonight. Skies turn mostly cloudy, and temperatures fall to the mid-30s. Areas of dense fog could redevelop late, reducing visibility before sunrise.

Monday brings improvement and a taste of February thaw. After early fog, sunshine breaks out with highs near 58 degrees. Tuesday turns even milder with highs around 63 under mostly cloudy skies. This warming trend continues into midweek, with highs climbing to 68 by Wednesday and slight shower chances returning after 1 p.m.

Here’s the seasonal reminder: when milder afternoons follow rain, flash freezing can occur later this month if colder air rushes back in. Wet roads can refreeze quickly after sunset during late winter swings.

Looking ahead into President’s Day week and the 6–10 day outlook, above-normal temperatures expand across much of the central U.S. Spring vibes build steadily, though periodic rain chances remain in the pattern.

Five Day Outlook for Louisville, Kentucky:
Today: Rain, high 52°.
Monday: Areas of fog early, then sunny, high 58°.
Tuesday: Mostly cloudy, high 63°.
Wednesday: Slight chance of showers, high 68°.
