Like a Lion



- Some hailers possible in the purchase tonight.
- Western KY could be impacted by a possible nasty and potentially deadly tornado outbreak on Friday. The area from Murray to Henderson eastward, that the SPC has a MDT risk out for is the main concern for the possible tornado outbreak.

Moderate Risk

Moderate Risk of Severe Weather on Friday from a line that extends from Murray KY to Jackson TN eastward. Very Large Hail, Extremely damaging winds, and tornadoes are expected. Sadly it has the potential to be a repeat of yesterday, and maybe even worse in some areas. All of Western KY needs to watch out.
