Temperatures will still be warm with highs in the upper 80s

Lexington hit its hottest mark of 2025 on Tuesday, soaring to 95 degrees. Thankfully, a midweek front brought just enough cloud cover and scattered storms to keep temperatures from climbing that high again. While a few spots picked up heavy downpours, most of Central and Eastern Kentucky stayed dry, with highs in the mid to upper 80s and a muggy feel.

As we move into Thursday, the pattern looks calmer. Some lingering morning clouds may slow down the warm-up, but by afternoon sunshine breaks back through. Highs will settle into the mid-80s—right on par for late August—and humidity won’t be nearly as oppressive as it was earlier this week.
