The stalled front is changing into a cold front and making its way out, but not before bringing more rain, and strong to severe weather in spots.
The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has mainly areas across central Kentucky in the area for a few severe storms, but the best chance will southeast of a line from Bowling Green to Lexington this afternoon. Damaging winds and a few spin up tornadoes will be possible.
With the stalled frontal boundary staying parked over our area through the weekend, the flooding threat is very high. We are under a Flood Watch through the weekend. There is strong wording from the National Weather Service in the watch, stating this is expected to be a "high-end event with life-threatening flooding."
Waves of rain and storms will continue through Sunday morning and afternoon. A few strong to severe storms will be possible, especially in southeast Kentucky. Shower linger into Sunday night.
Additional rainfall expected is between 3 to 4 inches through Sunday. Expect lighter amounts in eastern Kentucky.
