 .DISCUSSION...
 Rain overspreads the area today amid cool temperatures, as a low 
 pressure system and an associated warm front shifts northeast 
 towards the region. Rain could be heavy at times, especially given 
 any thunderstorm activity. Localized flooding could occur in some 
 areas, particularly in locations impacted by heavy rain the last 
 couple of days. A Flood Watch remains in effect for northeast 
 Kentucky, far western West Virginia, and much of southeast Ohio into 
 Saturday morning.
 
 Additional rounds of showers are likely each day of the Memorial Day 
 holiday weekend, with mainly afternoon and evening thunderstorms 
 also possible. Temperatures will recover to near or a few degrees 
 above normal beginning Saturday. Unsettled weather looks to continue 
 for the start of the new work week.
