BREONNA TAYLOR’S SHOOTING DEATH.
METEOROLOGIST KEVIN ROBINSON HAS THE RADAR MANY PEOPLE PLANNING OUT THE WEEKEND AND WILL BE LISTENING INTENTLY.
KEVIN: UNLIKE THURSDAY, LET’S LOOK AT IT WITH THE GLASS HALF-FULL, IT WILL BE A TOTAL WASHOUT.
THE DOWNSIDE IS THE SUN COULD FEEL MORE INTENSE -- FUEL MORE INTENSE THUNDERSTORMS.
THINGS ARE BEGINNING TO GET BUSIER.
THAT POTENT STORM SYSTEM BEGINS TO EDGE CLOSER TO OUR AREA.
RAIN HAS BROKEN OUT ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA.
POCKETS OF RAIN WILL DRIFT OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS INTO DEARBORN, WRIGLEY -- RIPLEY.
A COUPLE MORE SHOWERS TOWARD MAYSVILLE.
LOOKS LIKE OVERALL -- HERE IS THE MAJOR PLAYER IN THE FORECAST INTO THE WEEKEND.
THIS FRONT DRAPED TO THE SOUTH.
THT STORM CENTER IS MOVING ITS WAY TOWARD WESTERN KENTUCKY.
YOU CAN ALMOST SEE THE SPIN IN THE ATMOSPHERE.
THIS IS AN UNSEASONABLY STRONG WEATHER SYSTEM.
THAT SAID, AS IT SWINGS OUR WAY TOMORROW, IT WILL ADD ENOUGH SPIN THE ATMOSPHERE TO GIVE STORMS MORE ENERGY.
WHILE I DO BELIEVE OVERALL THE GREATEST THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL PLAY OUT TO THE EAST, I COULD SEE A CASE FOR BRINGING THAT SLIGHT RISK FARTHER WEST.
ANYONE CLOSE TO I-75 AND EAST IS UNDER THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
YOU WANT TO BE WEATHER ALERT.
AS WE GO THROUGH THE NIGHT, SEE DOWNPOURS.
I CAN’T RULE OUT A RUMBLE OF THUNDER BEFORE THE SUN COMES UP.
OVERALL THERE MAY BE SHOWERS AROUND FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.
WE GET INTO A LULL SOMETIMES LATE MORNING THROUGH THE EARLY AFTERNOON.
THEN ONCE WE GET INTO THE 2:00 TIMEFRAME, WATCH WHAT HAPPENS, ESPECIALLY ACROSS PARTS OF KENTUCKY.
STORMS BEGIN TO ERUPT.
ANY SUNSHINE WE SEE EARLY COULD PROVE PROBLEMATIC FOR THE AREA AND ADD FUEL TO THOSE STORMS.
WE KEEP THE THREAT OF STORMY WEATHER.
-- STORMY WEATHER THROUGH THE EVENING.
INTO SUNDAY -- SATURDAY NIGHT, OVERNIGHT THINGS LOOK QUIETER.
THE BUSY WEATHER, THE ACTIVE WEATHER IS TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
HEAVY RAIN IS A CONCERN ALONG WITH THE THREAT OF STRONG WINDS.
THERE COULD BE A FEW TORNADO WARNINGS AS WELL.
OUTSIDE NOW STILL VERY MUGGY.
77 AT THE AIRPORT.
TEMPERATURES AROUND THE AREA GENERALLY IN THE MID 70’S.
CHECKING IN ON THE TROPICS, OUR HURRICANE BECOMING MORE ORGANIZED OVERALL.
THE CENTER IS TRYING TO REPOSITION OVER THE ACTUAL CLUSTER OF STORMS.
HERE IS THE PROJECTED FORECAST.
80 MILE-PER-HOUR WINDS BRINGS IT OFF THE CLOSE TO THE COAST OF FLORIDA SATURDAY AND SUNDAY.
WE WILL HAVE TO SEE WHETHER IT CROSSES THE COASTLINE.
EITHER WAY, IF IT STAY OFFSHORE, THE WORST OF THE WEATHER REMAINED IN THE ATLANTIC.
-- REMAINS IN THE ATLANTIC.
70 FOR A LOW TONIGHT WITH SCATTERED RAIN.
STAYS MUGGY OVERNIGHT.
TOMORROW AN IMPACT DAY.
WE TOP OUT IN THE LOW TO MEET 80’S.
STORMS MOST ACTIVE IN THE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING.
SUNDAY MIGHT NOT BE A BAD DAY.
SUNDAY MIGHT TURN OUT TO BE CONSIDERABLY DRIER THAN THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS.
THEN MORE STORMS EARLY NEXT WEEK.
MIKE: FOR YOU SOME
