Heavy showers and storms are moving into our region.  Some of these will produce hail and gusty winds.  Isolated tornado is possible.

Flooding and flash flooding will be possible over the coming days.  The National Weather Service encourages everyone to avoid flooded roadways.  Report flooding to law enforcement and/or the National Weather Service.   Our region experiences flash flood deaths almost every year.  People think they can drive through flooded roadways and by the time they realize they can't - it is too late.  Please don't be one of those people.

We have a chance for a few more showers and storms on Wednesday.  Some of those storms could be strong and produce gusty winds and hail.  A tornado can't be ruled out to our east and down into Tennessee.  We believe the tornado threat is smaller over Missouri and Illinois.  Western Kentucky will need to be monitored.   a
