The next couple days hold rain chances as a weather system moves towards our area...

Today's temps will be around 90 with a 20% chance of a pop up shower/storm. Sunday will have a 40% chance of storms with highs in the middle 80s but the same humidity. Monday will have a 30% chance of lingering showers from the storm system on Sunday.

Tuesday-Wednesday should have slightly lower humidities with temps in the mid 80s. There could be an isolated storm these two days, but I will leave it out of the forecast for now.

Moisture from Fay could arrive here as soon as Thursday night and last through Saturday. It appears that some areas, especially east of Louisville, could get a soaking rain out of this. I will say a 40% chance or rain for Friday-Saturday morning. Temps will be in the rain cooled lower 80s over this period, but there will plenty of humidity with the tropical system around.
