Friday night is looking pretty good for high school football across Kentucky. It will be warm at kickoff, with temperatures mostly in the upper 70s to lower 80s. By the fourth quarter, most areas should be down into the 70s.

There is a chance of a shower or thunderstorm in some parts of the state, but it does not look like a washout. Western Kentucky has the best chance to stay dry, while rain chances increase some as you head east. Central Kentucky, including Lexington and Richmond, has around a 15 percent chance of rain. Eastern and southeastern Kentucky may have a better chance of seeing a stray shower or storm.

For most teams, the weather should not be a problem. A passing shower or storm could cause an issue at a few games, so keep an eye on the sky, especially before kickoff.

Western Kentucky: Mostly clear to partly cloudy and warm at kickoff. Temperatures near 80 degrees early, falling into the low to mid 70s by the fourth quarter.
