Lexington, KY – As the week concludes, cooler temperatures are settling in after a period of rain in eastern Kentucky. This Friday, lingering showers are expected in the far southeastern regions while the majority of the area will gradually witness clearing skies.
The day will be accompanied by a chilly northwesterly breeze, limiting afternoon highs to only the low 60s, with some areas potentially reaching the mid-60s. Overnight temperatures will drop significantly, falling into the upper 30s and low 40s, aligning closely with the seasonal average but considerably cooler compared to recent nights.
On Saturday, temperatures are projected to warm slightly into the mid-to-upper 60s. Despite a pleasant afternoon, evening plans should be approached with caution as temperatures dip back into the 40s. A warm front is anticipated to pass through Saturday night, bringing a slight chance of morning showers on Saturday.
Following the weekend, a surge of warmth is expected to dominate the forecast. By Monday, temperatures could challenge record highs for the region, with potential highs nearing 78 degrees set in 2015. Tuesday is poised to push even higher, potentially exceeding the 79 degrees record established in 1977.
As Election Day approaches, forecasters are monitoring rain chances that may develop late in the day. A cold front is predicted to sweep across the central U.S., leading to possible showers and storms in the Lexington area. Current forecasts suggest that rainfall may hold off until Tuesday evening, extending into Wednesday morning.
This upcoming rain is expected to lower temperatures once again, emphasizing the transition into a more active weather pattern for the early weeks of November.
Residents are encouraged to stay updated on changing weather conditions as the season progresses.
