Kentucky Weather

This Fall, extreme meteorologist Reed Timmer is going to take a break from storm chasing and turn his attention to a Fall Speaking Tour, which includes a stop in here in Kentucky.

Here in the Midwest, the arrival of summer can't get here quickly enough. I live in western Kentucky and we've had a miserable severe weather season. We've battled tornadoes, monster hail, and historic flooding. Frankly, we need (and have earned) some peace, some quiet, and some summer. Only, there may be a bit of a curve ball.

Over the weekend, I was scrolling through Facebook and saw a post from Reed Timmer. Reed is an 'extreme meteorologist' and is one of my favorites to follow on social media. I have been obsessed with tornadoes since I was a kid and I live vicariously through Reed's expertise and abandon.

Kathy Albin has come up with a fun way to 'stomach' our turbulent and tornadic weather. She has outfitted her new storm shelter with a Bloody Mary bar.

2025 is shaping up to be an incredibly tornadic year here in western Kentucky, southern Indiana, and southern Illinois. Already this year, we have experienced a series of turbulent weather events.

Zach Jennings and Keith Gorman, from Storm Hunters Nation, reached out to Morgantown Mission in Butler County and have organized a supply drive.

If you live in Owensboro and Daviess County, your alarm clock Saturday morning was a loud, banging, unstoppable sound. Looking out my window, I saw massive amounts of hail falling to the ground. It was hard to see, as if it was a blinding blizzard. It piled up fast.

The National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center has western KY, southwestern IN, and southern IL under an Enhanced Level 3 Risk for Friday night.

Western Kentucky and southern Indiana are on the clock for possible severe weather this week. Is this early enough to say March is coming in like a lion?

The weekend, specifically March 1st, marked the much-welcomed end to 'meteorological winter.' It turned out to be a very active winter season here in western Kentucky, southern Indiana and southern Illinois.

Cumberland Falls is one of the most beautiful places in Kentucky. But, at flood stage, it sort of takes on an "angry" vibe.

A Winter Storm Warning has been issued for western Kentucky, southern Indiana, and southern Illinois beginning at 9 AM Tuesday.
