Record Still In Jeopardy

In a previous post, I wondered if we hit 90 degrees on Friday. It turned out we briefly touched the 90 degree mark. So, the streak continues at 20. However, today may even be more hard-pressed to touch that mark.

As of 11:30am, a weaking line of showers was approaching the Louisville area from the west. Heavier, steadier showers look to stay south of the Metro. More importantly, cloud cover will be tough to erode. With temperatures in the low 80's and expected to fall a few degrees with any onset of precipitation, I'm not expecting a bounce in readings until after 2:00pm.

My forecast chart, admittedly NOT professional, shows our temps dipping into the upper 70's to near 80. Then rebounding to a high of 88 IF we have the clouds and sun mixture. If we do get enough clearing, then 90 looks reasonable, but again, like yesterday, barely.
