.DISCUSSION...Scattered showers and storms will impact southern Indiana
and north central Kentucky this evening. Lightning, brief heavy rainfall,
and gusty winds will be the main threats. Sunday should be mostly dry and
warm as a frontal boundary stalls over our area in the morning and then
lifts north as a warm front into the afternoon. Look for highs in the low
with minimum relative humidity values mostly in the 35 to 50 percent
range.
