LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY — A line of storms was moving east across Kentucky and southern Indiana early Monday morning, according to a 6 a.m. ET radar update. The storms have already produced a couple of warnings along their path but are beginning to show signs of weakening.

Storms Track From Evansville Through Louisville and Bardstown

Radar imagery shows the storm line extending from near Morganfield and Madisonville in western Kentucky through Evansville, Hardinsburg, and Louisville, continuing east toward Bardstown.
