We will have another heavy rainfall threat that will carry a localized Flood potential, mainly along and north of I-64 later this evening. We are in a level 2 (Slight Risk) for excessive rainfall across southeast Indiana and north central Kentucky. A Flood Watch has also been issued.

The good news is that this should be the last round of heavy rainfall for a bit as we enter an overall quieter period of weather going into late week and the weekend.
