Paducah, KY – A cold front moving through western Kentucky is expected to bring thunderstorms and showers, starting Tuesday and continuing through the week. Local residents should prepare for wet conditions, with potential rainfall reaching up to two inches in some northern areas by midweek.
According to the National Weather Service in Paducah, scattered storms will move into the region by Tuesday, bringing the possibility of isolated damaging winds and large hail. While the risk for severe weather remains marginal, localized flooding cannot be ruled out due to heavy downpours.
More widespread rain is expected later in the week, with increased chances for significant precipitation Thursday into Friday as a tropical system moves in. Drivers along I-24 should use caution, particularly in low-lying areas where water could accumulate quickly. If you are commuting or traveling, monitor local weather updates for real-time conditions and avoid flooded roadways.
