Here is the hydrological outlook from the National Weather Service in Louisville.

...Heavy Rain And Flooding Likely Beginning Tuesday Night In Central Kentucky...Repeated Periods Of Rainfall Are Expected Tuesday Night Through Sunday Across Portions Of Central Kentucky As Multiple Waves Move Along A Stalled Front. By Next Sunday Widespread Rainfall Totals Of 3 To 6 Inches Are Expected Across The Commonwealth, With Up To
8 Inches Possible In Southern Kentucky.
The First Wave Of Heavy Rain Is Expected Tuesday Night And Wednesday. Widespread 2 To 3 Inch Rainfall Over South-Central Kentucky Will Result In Areal Flooding, With Additional Rises Likely Along The Green, Barren, Kentucky, And Cumberland Rivers.
Additional Waves Of Rain Are Likely Friday Through The Weekend.
Given The Already Saturated Ground And Elevated River Levels,
Which Will Be Enhanced By The Midweek Rains, Any Of These Waves Could Produce Enough Rain To Result In Localized Flooding And Further Aggravate River Flooding.
Confidence Is High That Widespread Heavy Rain Will Fall Across Kentucky In The Coming Week, And Will Result In Areal And River Flooding. Rises On The Green, Barren, Kentucky, And Cumberland Rivers Are Likely. Beyond Wednesday, The Timing And Placement Of Heavy Rain Is Less Certain, Making It More Difficult To Determine The Severity Of Any Flooding Or The Extent That Other Basins Will Be Affected. Anyone With Interests Along Any Area Rivers Should Stay Up To Date On The Latest Forecasts.
