As of 8:00 am est, the SPC has put out a rare HIGH risk of severe weather for a large part of central Kentucky. Primary threat - tornadoes. According to the SPC, storm initiation for the main event could begin as early as 1pm est, out toward the Mississippi river area to our west. Also, the continued threat exists that large, long-tracked tornadoes will occur within these areas in the MOD/HIGH risk areas.

The 'numbers' continue to advertise this risk. You will hear these buzzwords often today, such as destabilization, strong jet streak, dewpoint, storm relative helicity values, shear, warm sector, just to name a few. Many of the professionals will be talking about these as they relate to possible tornadic/supercellular development.

Severe thunderstorms are ongoing at this moment along and north of the Ohio river. THESE ARE NOT THE TORNADIC STORMS that are supposed to affect the region later today. Don't be fooled by the sunshine, which I'm now getting here at my location as of 10:30am. I'll be reporting often today.
