The National Weather Service office in Paducah continues to issue a hazardous weather advisory for thunderstorm activity on Friday.

Scattered to numerous thunderstorms are expected to develop late Friday afternoon ahead of a cold front. Severe storms are a possibility, especially after 3 pm over the Pennyrile region of western Kentucky, as well as southwest Indiana. A slight chance of storms is indicated for the rest of western Kentucky and southern Illinois.

Damaging winds will be the greatest threat, but damaging hail and isolated tornadoes will also be possible. 

The severe potential should push east of the area by 9 pm.

The potential for thunderstorms will return Monday night and Tuesday. The main concerns appear to be lightning and locally heavy rain.
