The Storm Prediction Center has most of Kentucky parts of southern Indiana and southern Ohio in a Marginal Risk Area for strong to damaging wind gusts. I will update later today.

November 17, 20178 yr Author These two maps show the winds and showers as the front passes through Kentucky. The time slot is from 10 am to 7 pm EST. The first one is the simulated radar. This one is the wind/temperature map. It shows exactly what the wind advisory is saying. We could see a 10-15 degree temperature drop after the front passes through your area.
