Pleasant Weather Forecast for Lexington, KY with Rain Expected This Weekend

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Residents of the area are enjoying a clear and pleasant Friday as temperatures are expected to peak in the low-to-mid 60s. As the day progresses, clouds from southern and southeastern Kentucky will dissipate, allowing for mostly sunny conditions.

For Saturday, a warm front is set to move through the area, resulting in a mild afternoon with temperatures climbing into the mid-to-upper 60s. However, cloud cover is anticipated to increase as a cold front approaches, bringing rain late Saturday and throughout Sunday.

The forecast indicates that the heaviest rain will fall during the early morning hours on Sunday, with a follow-up of breezy showers expected later in the day. Rainfall amounts between one inch and one and a half inches are anticipated across central and northern Kentucky, while southeastern regions may see lesser totals. Wind gusts could reach 30-40 mph, with stronger gusts possible.

Once the cold front passes late Sunday into Monday, most areas will experience drier conditions with a few lingering showers in the far southeastern mountains. The upcoming week will start with cooler weather, particularly on Monday night into Tuesday as skies clear out. Highs are expected to briefly reach the upper 60s and low 70s on Wednesday before another cold front moves in, leading to a drop in temperatures by Thursday and Friday, where highs may only be in the 50s.

Today’s forecast is as follows:

  • FRIDAY: Mostly sunny with highs in the low-to-mid 60s.
  • FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear and cooler, with lows ranging from the upper 30s to low 40s.
