Good news for those of you heading to Churchill Downs on Saturday for the 2026 Kentucky Derby: The chance of rain isn't too high.
The bad news: You may have to pack layers. It's going to be cold!
Per AccuWeather: The forecast projects a high of 57 degrees in Louisville on Saturday, with a low of 39. There is a chance of rain -- 25 percent as of publishing this Friday morning -- so keep your fingers crossed if you don't bring an umbrella with you.
There you have it. Enjoy the race if you're attending -- and if you're betting on the Kentucky Derby, make sure to keep an eye on the radar and possible precipitation throughout the day.
There you have it!
