Severe storm threat has dropped to minimal, or less.

Situation is no longer “confusing” as the short term models continue to highlight the ideas presented earlier.  Some adjustments are needed to the timing, but the severe weather threat has moved to central Indiana eastward to central Ohio.  Severe storms are not expected locally.

Latest timing for Louisville metro area:

5 P.M. to 8 P.M.:  quite windy and warm, but only about a 5% -10% chance for a thunderstorm.

8 P.M. to 10 P.M.:  area of showers/thunderstorms (mostly moderate to strong)  moves from west to east across metro area.  No severe weather expected.

10 P.M. to 2 A.M.:  Rain with embedded weak to moderate thunderstorms continues.  Heavy rain briefly in thunderstorms.  Flash flooding is possible in a few areas.

2 A.M. to 4 A.M.:  Rain/thunder gradually fades away.
