The Paducah, Kentucky, NWS radar is down for repairs. Some of the radars may not work. Use other radars or the regional radars. The NWS Paducah radar will be down another week. Perhaps a little longer.

A windy spring day ahead of us!
An area of low pressure will push off to our northwest today. Moving into the Great Lakes over the next 24 hours.
You can see that low on the morning weather map. The red L is the area of low pressure.
Those black wavy lines are isobars. Isobars are equal lines of barometric pressure. They are tightly packed and that means a windy day and night ahead of us.
Tightly packed isobars are a signal for strong winds.
This evening’s weather map shows the line of showers and storms pushing across our region.
Tomorrow’s weather map.
Here is the future-cast radar from the Hrrr model guidance. What radar might look like later today.
A few of the thunderstorms could produce strong and gusty wind, locally heavy rain, and lightning.
Let’s look at a few NWS graphics.
A high wind warning has been issued for portions of the Bootheel. The bright tan zone. The rest of the region is under a wind advisory.
Either way, it means windy conditions will occur today and tonight. Winds of 20 to 50 mph will be possible. Perhaps a bit higher over the Bootheel.
Speaking of advisories and warnings. Check out the large blizzard warning in the cold portion of this system.
Peak rain time for a few local cities. Just find a city near you and compare. Rainfall totals on the right.
The risk of severe weather appears minimal, but not zero. I can’t rule out a few of the thunderstorms producing high winds.
