- More severe weather is on the horizon for residents in west and central Kentucky on Saturday as a persistent weather system that has dumped significant levels of rainfall for the past several days will not only bring more rain, but the chance for strong winds and possible tornadoes in the evening hours.
Flash flooding events and water rescues have already begun to play out in some areas, including Louisville, ahead of river cresting, which could begin as early as Sunday. Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg warned that the downtown area near the Ohio River will likely see more impacts than those in February and conditions could rival the flooding event of 2018, potentially becoming one of the worst floods in the city's history.
