The National Weather Service in Louisville has issued a Flash Flood Watch for portions of central Kentucky, including Lexington, until 8 PM EDT/ this evening.

A line of showers and storms will persist across portions of central Kentucky this morning and potentially result in flash flooding. Additional showers and storms are likely to fire off this afternoon ahead of a cold front and could contribute to additional flooding. The flood threat should end late this evening as the cold front pushes through the region.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
