Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Kentucky
National Weather Service Jackson KY
601 AM EDT Sun May 26 2024

.DISCUSSION...The weather is expected to remain unsettled through
Monday. There will be multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms during
this period, with some storms being strong to severe this afternoon
into tonight. The wet pattern will keep any fire weather concerns
rather low. Then we will see cooler weather by mid-week on westerly
to northerly flow at the surface. This will bring a break in the
thunderstorms. This will also drop afternoon relative humidity values
into the mid- to upper 30s by Thursday and Friday.
