932 FNUS53 KLMK 020758 FWFLMK Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central Kentucky and Southern Indiana National Weather Service Louisville KY 358 AM EDT Thu May 2 2024 .DISCUSSION...Unseasonably warm temperatures are expected across the region today with highs expected to reach into the mid-to-upper 80s this afternoon. Winds will remain relatively light out of the south today, increasing somewhat west of I-65 this afternoon as a front approaches the region from the west. Smoke dispersion parameters will be primarily driven by deep mixing heights this afternoon, with the boundary layer expected to extend up to 7-8 kft during peak heating. Tonight, moisture will begin to increase from west to east across the area as the aforementioned front pushes closer to the region. This front is expected to bring on and off chances for showers and thunderstorms Friday into the weekend, with temperatures expected to remain above normal.
