Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Eastern Kentucky
National Weather Service Jackson KY
652 AM EDT Fri Jul 26 2024

.DISCUSSION...A frontal boundary stalling just to our south
will keep a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms over
portions of the Cumberland drainage basin today and Saturday.
Elsewhere, slightly drier air moving in on the north side of
the front will give a minor respite from summertime humidity.
More humid conditions will return area wide early in the new
week, with an increasing potential for rain.
