Hydrologic Outlook issued February 9 at 4:35PM EST by NWS Jackson KY

ESFJKL

Multiple surface lows are expected to impact eastern Kentucky
beginning late Monday night and continuing through late Thursday
night. These systems will bring periods of rain, possibly moderate
to heavy at times. At this time, between one and nearly four inches
of rainfall is forecast through Thursday night with locally higher
amounts possible.

With antecedent saturated soils and elevated stream levels from
recent rainfall, decent to significant rises on creeks and streams
will be possible through Thursday night. The larger rivers will then
likely see significant rises or minor flooding Friday into Saturday.
At this time, the Cumberland, Kentucky and Big Sandy River Basins
appear to be the most susceptible to seeing flooding. However,
portions of the Red River and Levisa Fork could also see substantial
rises.

An additional round of rainfall is forecast from Saturday into
Saturday night. There is high degree of uncertainty in rainfall
amounts from this system at the end of the week, but they could also
be in the moderate to heavy category. Should this turn out on the
wetter side of solutions, renewed rises on creeks and rivers would
occur with localized flooding again possible.
