Kentucky Lake Region Forecast (September 29, 2011)

Breezy and Gusty Conditions Will Make It Rough for the Lakes

The cold front that has been discussed for a few days is on track and will pass through the region this evening/tonight and that will usher in noticeably cooler air for the weekend. It will also become very breezy and gusty and that will lead to some rough conditions on the area waterways.

The other concern will be the threat for patchy frost Sunday morning. Temperatures will be falling into the 30s for most of the region, except for those right near the water. Those further inland could chill enough to allow for some patchy frost, especially across southern Illinois.

The chilliness won't last long and the 80s will make a quick return as they are expected again by midweek. They will then remain into next weekend before the next cold front arrives between the 10th and 12th of October.
