Good evening folks!!
The warm temperatures from today will continue on into Friday and eventually into the weekend as an area of high pressure dominates the southeast.

For the remainder of the night, skies should remain clear and conditions will be dry. As the morning hours near, some light fog could develop across southcentral Kentucky, low temperature for the morning should remain in the 60s. For tomorrow, there is a slight chance for some showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon hours as a pesky cold front gets picked up by an upper-level shortwave and move on out of here. Highs tomorrow will be very similar to today’s, topping out in the upper 80s, could see a few 90s spotted on the map.
The weekend will be a toasting one, as the area of high pressure slightly moves towards the east into the Carolinas. Temperatures will remain in the upper 80s with morning lows in the 60s. If you plan on being outside this weekend, remember to stay hydrated with lots of fluids.
