5/20- STORM WARNING- Very Wet Tomorrow Night

HAPPY FRIDAY ALL-

Today is going to be absolutely stunning, with highs in the mid to upper 70s and bright sunshine. Unfortunately...it cannot last very long as extreme rain moves in tomorrow night. At least one inch of rain is probably going to fall in a fairly short timeframe focused from about 10PM tomorrow night to 10AM or so on Sunday morning...so enjoy the weather while we can! Much of next week looks cool and showery...so the fun begins and ends today. Do those outdoor activities today - it may be a while before you want to do them again. As for temperatures, expect the low 70s through the weekend with potentially somewhat chillier weather the further next week goes on.

In the Pacific- No development is likely anytime soon

There are 11 days until the Atlantic Hurricane Season, which could have an active start if you believe some models. The GFS is below, but take it as a "kicks and giggles" type of thing as anything beyond a week is a fool's gambit at best.

Today in weather history- May 20, 1894- Somehow, Lexington, KY manages to receive 6" of snow, which is almost undoubtedly the latest significant snowfall in Kentucky. Such an event would be a once in a century (at least- and probably even longer) type deal, and one we likely won't see again anytime soon!
