For the most part, we ve been pretty fortunate this spring in terms of the weather. Outside of a few rounds of heavy rain here and there, it s been a relatively quiet severe storm season for the Tri-State. It looks like that may no longer be the case today and tomorrow.
According to the National Weather Service in Paducah, Kentucky, the entire Tri-State is under an enhanced risk for severe weather over the next 36 to 48 hours. The first, and main, threat will roll into the area later this evening and into the overnight hours because, for whatever reason, Mother Nature doesn t like doing things during the day. The second threat is expected to enter our area later in the day Thursday afternoon however, they don t expect it to bring the same potential level of intensity as round one. Although we are talking about the weather, so that could change at a moment s notice.
