If you’ve lived in Louisville long enough, you know how unpredictable spring can be — and this week is no different. We’re talking about everything from thunderstorms to sunshine, with temperatures swinging between cozy cool and early summer warm. So whether you’re planning to grill out or curl up with a blanket, here’s how it’s all shaping up:
Friday – Cloudy Calm
-
What to expect: Cloudy skies, comfy temps, and a light breeze
-
High/Low: 73° / 60°
Friday’s one of those in-between days. Nothing too exciting — just clouds and a hint of that muggy spring air. Not bad for knocking out errands or catching a patio happy hour before the weekend shakes things up.
Saturday – Storms Incoming
-
What to expect: Breezy with off-and-on rain and a solid chance for late-day thunderstorms
-
High/Low: 76° / 60°
Saturday could get loud. Thunderstorms are expected to roll through later in the day, and some could pack strong wind gusts. It’s warm, yes, but keep your outdoor plans flexible — you might need to dodge some downpours or bring the party inside.
Sunday – Warm, Wet & Watchful
-
What to expect: Humid and cloudy with scattered storms here and there
-
High/Low: 82° / 64°
Sunday’s going to feel like summer — if summer had commitment issues. Expect some warmth, but don’t trust it fully. Isolated storms could crash the day. Best to check the radar before heading out to the park or planning that rooftop brunch.
Monday – From Rainy to Refreshing
-
What to expect: Morning showers, then clearing skies with a breezy feel
-
High/Low: 74° / 51°
Monday starts a little damp, but by midday, things improve. It’s one of those “don’t judge the whole day by the morning” kind of days. Afternoon should feel crisp and clear — perfect for that post-lunch stroll or a quiet drive with the windows down.
Tuesday – Pleasant With a Touch of Clouds
-
What to expect: Sun peeking through high clouds
-
High/Low: 74° / 52°
Now we’re talking. Tuesday brings back that easy, pleasant weather. It’s not too hot, not too cold, and the sunshine — even if filtered — should lift your spirits. Great day to get outside.
Wednesday – Spring Perfection
-
What to expect: Warm, partly sunny, and all-around enjoyable
-
High/Low: 78° / 57°
This might be the best day of the week. Bright skies, near-80 temps, and just enough breeze to keep things from feeling sticky. Basically, the kind of spring day you wish every day could be.
Thursday – Cloudy With a Chance of “Is That Rain?”
-
What to expect: Mostly cloudy with some on-and-off rain
-
High/Low: 79° / 62°
Thursday feels like it wants to rain but can’t decide when. It’ll be warm and mostly cloudy, with some occasional drizzle or light showers. Not a total washout — but maybe keep your umbrella nearby, just in case.
Pack for Everything
This week is a little bit of everything: stormy starts, sunny middles, and a gentle slide back into cloudy weather. If you’ve got outdoor plans, especially over the weekend, keep your eyes on the radar. But don’t worry — there’s plenty of sunshine on the way too.
