Hydrologic Outlook issued September 25 at 5:13PM CDT by NWS Paducah KY ESFPAH The remnants of Hurricane Helene are expected to drift north and westward into the Quad State region as it merges with an upper- level low across the area. The greatest chance of seeing widespread tropical downpours will be Thursday night through Friday night as the tropical system becomes nearly stationary over the area. Rainfall totals in the 2 to 5 inch range will be widespread across the Quad State before the system gradually weakens toward the first half of the weekend. The greatest totals are most likely to occur across west Kentucky into southeast Missouri. The region has been in drought over the past month, so most of the rivers and streams will be able to handle the heavy rainfall totals. There is still a chance that localized flooding could occur in low-lying areas and especially where heavy rain falls in a short period of time. Stay tuned to future forecasts and updates in case a Flood Watch becomes necessary.
