7:45pm ET, RADAR CHECK:
- Storms have entered Northern Kentucky, but have not been close to severe levels (yet).
- The "main" portion of the cluster is still in Southern Indiana and only moving between 25-30mph. So it still has a couple of hours before it really gets going.
- In the "PINK" , a Severe Thunderstorm Watch has been issued for Damaging Wind gusts between 55-70mph, until 2am ET. There was no tornado risk noted on the discussion.
- The storms have been struggling a smidge, but the expectation is that they *may* ramp up a bit as they enter Kentucky. We'll keep you posted and will be LIVE when the storms ramp up. - George
