Been cooking up some updates to my graphic system, and the new drought monitor data has come out. As expected, we have seen an improvement in southern Kentucky with the rain over the last week. We're still behind, and we need to get some more rain to catch up... but I am looking forward to a couple of days of drier weather.

It is certainly warm out there this afternoon, several spots are close to 80 and we will likely go into the lower to mid 80s for highs this afternoon. There is a small chance of an isolated pop up shower, but things should be mostly dry for the remainder of the day. I'll have an update video tonight.
