Little Relief From Heat Wave
KENTUCKY...
A weather system producing some strong thunderstorms is bringing a bit of relief from the intense heat wave that's been baking Kentucky, though temperatures will remain above normal.
Thunderstorms capable of producing winds of 60 mph rumbled across parts of central Kentucky. National Weather Service meteorologist Mike Crow says the rain and cloud cover will limit highs to around 90 degrees in the Louisville area, still slightly above normal but well below the record 102-degree reading in Louisville on Wednesday.
Highs will reach into the 90s in western and eastern Kentucky.
Crow says temperatures will moderate somewhat in the low 90s in western Kentucky and in the upper 80s to low 90s in eastern sections, but will be on the rise again early next week.
