...Gusty Thunderstorms with Small Hail and Cold Air Funnel Clouds
through Early Tonight...

Gusty thunderstorms capable of producing cold air funnel clouds
and small hail are forecast through early tonight. These cold air
funnels are developing underneath thunderstorms that are moving
across the area. Underneath these showers...spinning columns of
air that look like tornadoes may continue to develop. These
funnels usually are very brief and rarely touch the ground. If
these funnels do touch down...they most likely will not cause
damage to life or property.

Cold air funnels are due to very cool air aloft...warm moist air
near the ground...and are usually in association with a strong
area of low pressure in the upper levels of the atmosphere. Due to
little or no wind shear...they are usually weak and very brief.

Rain moving out, kicking off a dry stretch

(WSIL) -- Showers are leaving western Kentucky this morning, kicking off a primarily dry forecast for the foreseeable period.

Today starts with sunshine for most, but it looks like we may have a bit of low clouds try to pass through around midday. This may bring mostly cloudy skies to some folks, before clearing out this evening. Either way, Friday ends dry, with high temperatures fairly seasonal, in the upper 40's.

The weekend looks largely dry, but I'm tracking a disturbance that will TRY to bring us some more active weather, coming up this morning, on News 3.
