SUMMARY: Louisville faces a moderate severe weather risk this Friday, with storms already active in parts of Kentucky early in the morning. Initial strong to severe thunderstorms, including hail, high winds, and intense lightning, are affecting areas like Grayson, Hardin, and Meade counties. After a drier midday with muggy conditions and temperatures rising to 87°F, severe storms with potential damaging winds, large hail, and a tornado threat are expected late afternoon into the evening, especially in the southern region. The storm threat should clear by early Saturday, leading to a breezy but pleasant weekend before unsettled weather returns early next week.
