Good Tuesday morning.

Just like we experienced on Monday, low clouds will play havoc with local temperatures as a front stalls across Kentucky.

Today, there will be more clouds than sun, with the cloudiest areas being in northern Kentucky, and brightest spots across southern Kentucky. Highs will be near 47 in Lexington, and again, colder north and west, but widespread 50s in southern Kentucky. We're in the transition zone once again. An isolated sprinkle or two will be possible this evening, especially near the Lake Cumberland area.

Tonight, under mostly cloudy sies, lows will fall to near 34 degrees. Rain showers will increase late. Northeastern Kentucky will have temperatures very close to the freezing mark, so any locations northeast of the Bluegrass region may have a brief period of light freezing rain late on Tuesday night into early on Wednesday.

Eventually, on Wednesday, temperatures across the entire region will climb into the 40s as light rain showers fall. Highs should be near 45 in Lexington.

Rain will increase on Thursday, becoming fairly heavy for a period of time in southeastern Kentucky as low pressure crosses the region. Highs will be near 48.

A few showers will linger into Friday morning, especially in eastern Kentucky. Highs will be near 46.

Saturday should be a great day with partly sunny skies and a high of 51.

Rain will return with a second area of low pressure on Sunday. Sunday's high will be near 51, but colder air will arrive during the second half of the storm. On Monday, rain may mix with and change to snow, and highs will only be near 41 degrees in the morning.
