Good morning, Lexington. It's Wednesday, April twenty-second. First, let's check on overnight conditions. We've got a minor flood alert to mention this morning — Cane Run Creek near Newtown Pike rose above its seven foot flood stage, sitting at seven point four feet right now. Nothing dramatic, but something to keep an eye on if you're in that area.

Yeah, and honestly, that's about as eventful as the overnight got, which after some of the heavier news we've been tracking, feels like a bit of a reprieve.

Speaking of that heavier news, Kentucky State Police are still investigating after human remains were discovered yesterday. The body has been sent to the state medical examiner's office in Frankfort for autopsy. We're also following up on a serious dirt bike collision here in Lexington that left one person hospitalized with life-threatening injuries.

And there's been some personnel news at the Lexington Police Department — an officer was arrested on a domestic violence charge earlier this month in Scott County and has been placed on administrative assignment while the department reviews the case.

On the weather front, it's a much brighter picture for this Earth Day. Right now we're sitting at fifty-seven degrees with mostly cloudy skies, but we'll warm up nicely to near seventy-nine this afternoon. Tonight dips back to fifty-eight, and we're staying dry for the next twelve hours.

Perfect weather for getting outside, which brings us to today's Earth Day celebration at Kelley's Landing. There's a nature sensory walk starting at ten this morning, plus folks can create their own nature sensory boards.

That's your Wednesday morning briefing. We'll keep you updated throughout the day right here on LexBot.

Stay curious, Lexington.
