Rain Chances Return

Another beautiful day across WKU and Bowling Green as temperatures reached highs in the lower 80s with plenty of sunshine, thanks to the area of high pressure. The temperatures will remain in the low to mid 80s throughout next week, but we do have a few rain chances in the forecast, with the first being tomorrow.

Valid at 7pm on Sunday

The shortwave that we talked about in yesterday's post is still present on the models up in the atmosphere(500mb). This could very well be enough to indicate some areas to watch out for tomorrow as lifting for some rain and storms could be possible throughout the day tomorrow.

Relative humidity values indicate that we will see cloud cover throughout the state tomorrow with the potential for some scattered showers as well. Below is a view of the relative humidity values at 7pm on Sunday.

Simulated reflectivity allows us to look at what the models are suggesting based off what the model took in for the data at that time. On the data we are looking at, the model is suggesting that some rain showers will be possible tomorrow afternoon throughout the day. Not everyone will see rain and we can't take these model runs too serious because things can quickly change tomorrow. We will keep you updated on the rain chances, but for now, here is what the models are putting out.
