SUMMARY: Kentucky’s individual income tax rates are set to decrease from 4% to 3.5% in 2026, pending legislative approval. Senate budget chairman Chris McDaniel indicated that the state’s Reserve Fund has surpassed $5 billion, meeting the conditions for this tax cut. However, there are concerns that lowering income taxes may lead to increased consumption taxes, as Democrats argue that balancing the budget requires compensating elsewhere. Legislators face pressures to meet citizen needs while maintaining government services. Overall, the tax adjustment aims to stimulate economic growth, though critics warn of potential risks, citing examples from other states.

Kentucky appears to be on track for another income tax cut. Rep. Savannah Maddox and Rep. George Brown discuss how sustainable the move may be long term.

SUMMARY: The heat is easing with a comfortable weekend ahead. Northeasterly breezes and drier air follow a front that brought showers and storms yesterday, leading to lower humidity and below-normal temperatures. Friday will be pleasant with highs near 84°F and plenty of sunshine. Saturday remains calm and warm with low humidity and breezy conditions. However, shower chances increase Sunday, especially in central and southern Kentucky, due to an incoming system. This rain may continue into Monday and Tuesday with scattered storms, easing by midweek. Temperatures will stay in the middle to upper 80s, with dry conditions returning by Thursday.

WLKY Meteorologist Matt Milosevich has the latest on a break from the heat and humidity, plus when rain chances return in the forecast.
