The storm heading towards Louisville is losing its supercell characteristics and becoming a bow echo. You can see two counterrotating vortices in its lee, like an upward rising puff of smoke. There's a minor chance of tornadoes in those vortices I think, but anything that happens would be weak.

The worst of the hail is on track to go through southern metro Louisville. Winds around 50 kt being detected ~1000 ft above the ground. Might be stronger at the sfc since the winds are from a density current due to the downdraft spreading out at the ground.
