[{'start': '0.867', 'end': '6.906', 'text': "TEAM CAPTAIN.  NOW YOUR WLKY WEATHER WITH  METEOROLOGIST ERIC ZEMANEK.  FOR THOSE AT THE TRACK TODAY,  THEY HAD TO DODGE A FEW RAIN  SHOWERS DURING THE EARLY  AFTERNOON, AND IT WAS ALSO A  VERY BREEZY DAY, SO THE LADIES  HAD TO HANG ON TO THEIR HATS OUT  AT THE TRACK.  AND IT DOES LOOK LIKE SOME MORE  IMPACT WEATHER WILL BE ON THE  WAY THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS FOR  BOTH OAKS AND DERBY.  NOW FOR OAKS DAY TOMORROW WE'RE  JUST GOING TO BE TRACKING MORE.  SOME LATE DAY STORMS THAT ARE  GOING TO BE ROLLING INTO THE  AREA, MAINLY AFTER 4 P.M., SO I  THINK THE FIRST FEW RACES SHOULD  BE FINE.  BUT JUST KNOW AS THE DAY GOES  ON, THAT'S WHEN WE'RE GOING TO  HAVE THE BETTER CHANCE FOR SOME  STORMS PUSHING IN FOR DERBY DAY.  UNFORTUNATELY, WE'RE GOING TO BE  LOOKING AT OCCASIONAL SHOWERS  THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE DAY, SO  FROM START TO FINISH, YOU'RE  GOING TO WANT TO HAVE THAT  PONCHO ON STANDBY.  NOT GOING TO NEED IT THE WHOLE  TIME, BUT DEFINITELY WILL NEED  IT FOR PERIODS THROUGHOUT MOST  OF THE DAY.  AND WITH THE SYSTEM TOMORROW,  WE'LL HAVE TO WATCH FOR A COUPLE  TO BE ON THE STRONG TO SEVERE  SIDE, ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF TOWN,  CLOSER TO THE PARKWAYS.  THAT'S WHERE THERE IS A SLIGHT  RISK FOR A COUPLE STORMS TO BE  ON THE STRONG SIDE, WITH  DAMAGING WINDS, ISOLATED  TORNADOES POSSIBLE, AND EVEN  SOME LARGE HAIL.  SO WE'LL BE WATCHING THAT VERY  CLOSELY AS THOSE STORMS BEGIN TO  FIRE UP TOMORROW AFTERNOON,  BECAUSE WE ARE EXPECTING  TEMPERATURES ONCE AGAIN CLOSE TO  80 DEGREES.  SO THAT COULD HELP TO FUEL THOSE  STORMS AND REALLY GET THEM GOING  TOMORROW AFTERNOON.  SO LET'S BREAK DOWN THE TIMING  OF THIS FOR THE REST OF THIS  EVENING.  YOU CAN SEE JUSUST A FEW SCATTED  SHOWERS, MAINLY NORTH OF THE  RIVER ACROSS SOUTHERN INDIANA.  THOSE SHOULD FALL APART DURING  THE OVERNIGHT.  SO FIRST THING TOMORROW MORNING.  I DO THINK WE'LL WAKE UP TO A  FAIR BIT OF SUNSHINE, AND THAT  WILL HELP THE WARM TEMPERATURES  AS THE DAY GOES ON, CLOUDS BEGIN  TO PUSH IN BY THE AFTERNOON, BUT  WE'RE STILL DRY IN THE EARLY  AFTERNOON.  AS WE GET INTO THE EVENING.  THIS IS THE LINE OF STORMS THAT  I'M GOING TO BE PAYING VERY  CLOSE ATTENTION TO.  YOU CAN SEE SOME DARKER SHADES  SHOWING UP THAT'S GOING TO HAVE  THE POSSIBILITY FOR SOME OF  THOSE GUSTY WINDS, SOME PRETTY  DECENT DOWNPOURS, THUNDER AND  LIGHTNING, AND MAYBE EVEN SOME  LARGE HAIL.  WITH A COUPLE OF THIS.  AND YOU CAN SEE THIS IS RIGHT  AROUND 5:00.  THE OATS OATS RACE GOES OFF AT  551.  SO UNFORTUNATELY IT'S COMING  RIGHT WHEN THOSE SOME OF THOSE  BIGGER RACES WILL BE KIND OF  GOING.  GOOD NEWS IS IT SHOULD MOVE  THROUGH PRETTY QUICKLY.  BUT WE'RE GOING TO KEEP THE  CHANCE FOR SOME SCATTERED  SHOWERS FOR TOMORROW EVENING.  SO IF YOU'RE HEADING OUT TO SOME  OF THOSE DERBY PARTIES TOMORROW  NIGHT, STILL GOING TO WANT TO  HAVE THE RAIN GEAR WITH YOU,  BECAUSE WE MIGHT HAVE TO DODGE A  FEW MORE SHOWERS FIRST THING  SATURDAY MORNING.  AS YOU'RE GETTING READY TO HEAD  TO THE DERBY.  COULD HAVE SOME RAIN TO GET THE  DAY STARTED AND THEN THROUGH THE  DERBY DAY YOU CAN SEE JUST SOME  HIT OR MISS SCATTERED ACTIVITY.  I DON'T THINK SATURDAY WILL BE A  WASHOUT, BUT THERE IS GOING TO  BE THAT CHANCE AS WE KIND OF  HAVE THIS UPPER LEVEL LOW  SITTING OF JUST THESE ROUNDS OF  RAIN KIND OF ROLLING THROUGH THE  AREA FROM TIME TO TIME  THROUGHOUT OUR SATURDAY.  RIGHT NOW, THOUGH, FAIRLY QUIET  HERE IN TOWN, TEMPERATURES VERY  PLEASANT TONIGHT.  WE'VE BEEN HANGING ON TO THE LOW  70S, BUT WE SHOULD SEE THOSE  TEMPERATURES FALL BACK INTO THE  60S THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.  AS MENTIONED, A STRAY SHOWER  POSSIBLE MAINLY TO THE NORTH,  BUT IT SHOULD BE A PLEASANT  NIGHT, WITH 63 BEING THAT  OVERNIGHT LOW.  LET'S BREAK DOWN YOUR OAKS DAY  FORECAST.  IF YOU'RE HEADING OUT TO THE  TRACK TOMORROW MORNING.  SO AS YOU'RE KIND OF HEADING OUT  AS GATES OPEN, TEMPERATURES ARE  GOING TO BE IN THE 60S WILL  CLIMB INTO THE UPPER 70S TO NEAR  80 DEGREES THE FIRST HALF OF THE  DAY AGAIN DRY WITH SOME SUNSHINE  IN THE MIX.  ANY TIME AFTER 4:00, THAT'S WHEN  THERE'S GOING TO BE THE BETTER  CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS  ROLLING INTO THE AREA,  ESPECIALLY AS WE GET CLOSER TO  THE RUNNING OF THE OAKS AROUND  551, AND THEN TEMPERATURES WILL  COOL OFF AS THOSE SHOWERS PUSH  IN.  NOW FOR YOUR DERBY FORECAST  AGAIN, OCCASIONAL SHOWERS WITH A  FEW STORMS POSSIBLE.  RATHER CLOUDY AND NOT QUITE AS  WARM.  HIGHS RIGHT NEAR 70 DEGREES MOST  OF THE DAY THOUGH.  GOING TO BE STUCK IN THE 60S.  WE'LL HANG ON TO THE CLOUDS.  SOME SPOTTY SHOWERS SUNDAY AND  MONDAY WITH HIGHS ONLY AROUND  65.  AND THEN AS WE GET INTO THE  MIDDLE PART OF NEXT WEEK, WE  START TO DRY UP AND TEMPERATURES  REBOUND.  GETTING BACK INTO THE LOW TO MID  70S, WHICH IS WHERE WE SHOULD BE  FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.  BUT THIS IS JUST BEEN ONE OF  THOSE DERBY WEEKS WHERE THERE'S  ALWAYS A CHANCE.  BUT PEOPLE STILL HAVING LOTS OF  FUN OUT THERE AT THE TRACKS.  I'VE BEEN KIND OF A HAPPY MAN,  BY THE WAY.  APRIL WAS NOT GOOD.  IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE MAY'S  STARTING OFF THA"}]
