October was warm, though not quite recordbreaking. Even so, many Midwest locations had a top 5 warmest October. You can check your city here ➡️mrcc.purdue.edu/CLIMATE/stat…

🌧️Our mid-week system has been responsible for a fair amount of wind, but more importantly, a fair amount of rain! A large number of sites in the central & west region have received > 1" of precip. This includes at least part of the area under D1/D2 (Moderate to Severe #Drought).

Midweek rain is forecast across the Ohio Valley. The heaviest rainfall is expected along and south of the Ohio River, with amounts ranging from 1 to 3 inches. Despite the potential for heavy rain, the flood risk remains low due to dry antecedent conditions.

Over the past 30 days, most of our area has received lower-than-normal amounts of precipitation. However, rain begins moving back into the basin starting this weekend.

🧵And to think it all began with just a few holes in the ground over the summer... Today was a PERFECT day to officially welcome Nelson County to the Mesonet family! Our team is grateful for site host Brad Metcalf, @EmergencyN35406 and their willingness to host today's ceremony.

"Sun dogs" (aka parhelions) happen when light from the sun is refracted by the ice crystals that make up high clouds. In rarer cases, a 22° halo can surround the sun. Sun dogs are often at brightest when the sun is just above the horizon, which was the case for many Sunday. #kywx

🌤️High cirrus clouds in the upper levels of the atmosphere helped create "sun dogs" late Sunday afternoon just prior to sunset! Classic examples of this phenomenon were captured by webcams near Marion in the west and near Bedford in Trimble County in the north-central region...

We also visited their classroom for more talk of weather (including severe weather and flood safety) a week ago. Many thanks to Mr. Broderick Davis for setting up these visits! #kywx

🗼🙌Big shout-out to the 6th graders from Austin-Tracy Elementary in Barren County! It was a perfect morning to show these students around our site at @WKUAgriculture Farm to show them how we measure and collect weather data.

A high pressure system brings dry weather to the Ohio Valley. With no rain in the forecast through the weekend, rivers are currently experiencing normal flow, and are expected to remain in normal conditions.

Most of the region can expect a light 0.5-1.0" of rain over the next 2 days. No river flooding is forecast, but today's stronger storms could bring 1-2+" of rain and brief flash flooding to isolated spots, especially in IN. Clear, dry, and cooler weather arrives by Saturday!
