Good Friday and Happy Kentucky Oaks Day. Our Derby Weekend is off and running on a very chilly note with temps coming in well below normal. I expect this trend to continue for much of the month as rainfall likely goes toward average or above average.
Our Oaks Day has a fast-moving thin line of showers dropping in from the northwest. More areas stay dry than actually see any drops with the temps being the bigger story. Highs today reach the upper 50s to low 60s for many.
Temps tonight reach the upper 30s in some areas and that will make for one of the colder Derby mornings on record. The rest of the day finds one of the coolest Derby Day highs on record as most of the state likely stays in the 50s…
