The National Weather Service in Louisville has issued a Flood Advisory for Minor Flooding in Poor Drainage Areas for Garrard County in central Kentucky, Clark County in central Kentucky, Southeastern Jessamine County in central Kentucky, Southern Bourbon County in central Kentucky, Madison County in central Kentucky and Eastern Fayette County in central Kentucky.

The advisory is in effect until 730 PM EDT.

At 426 PM EDT, Doppler radar indicated heavy rain that will cause minor flooding. Overflowing poor drainage areas and water collecting in vulnerable locations such as low water crossings will result in minor flooding.

In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded roads. Find an alternate route.
