The heat is back and storm chances will follow into the holiday
What a difference a day makes! We began the month of July on a very pleasant note with comfortable temperatures/humidity levels and just like flipping a switch, hot and humid air came rolling back into Central and Eastern Kentucky on Tuesday. With high pressure giving way and drifting into New England, a comfortable northeast wind was replaced by a southwest wind which pushed plenty of warm and moist air back into the region. Afternoon highs surged back into the upper 80s to around 90 degrees along with dewpoints back into the upper 60s and low 70s. This is much more typical of early July weather and the warmth and moisture will set the table for some active weather into Independence Day.
