LEXINGTON, Ky. — A Flood Watch remains in effect through late Saturday night for much of central and eastern Kentucky, including Lexington, Louisville, and surrounding communities, according to WUKY 91.3 FM.

Flood watches are issued when conditions are favorable for flooding, though flooding may not occur. However, the watch indicates that residents should be ready to move to higher ground if water rises in their area, and to avoid driving through flooded roadways.
