Slight risk of severe and locally heavy rain

A tropical rain/ brief tornado threat is possible across West KY starting today. Esp. Thursday though. The remains of TD Gustav will move NE across MO and ARK along a cold front and lead to a mini tornado/strong wind possibly.


The biggest threat may be some good rain esp in the Purchase area of West KY. Could produce up to a inch or two of rain in some areas esp if the stalled cold front is closer to west ky and the remains of Gustav move more eastward.


SPC has a slight risk today west of the miss. but a brief spin up cant be ruled out in far west ky today. SPC tomorrow has a slight risk for the purchase area of West Kentucky. For brief winds/ an maybe a tornado threat and the best time for this will probably be the 10am-5pm range as the shear weakens throughout the day.
