Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central Kentucky and Southern Indiana
National Weather Service Louisville KY
427 AM EST Fri Nov 21 2025

.DISCUSSION...A low pressure system will cross the region this afternoon
into tonight, with waves of showers, drizzle, and low clouds expected
over the next 24 hours. A warm front will try to lift through the area today,
which could help to bring a temporary decrease in coverage of drizzle and
showers across southern Kentucky, with temperatures warming into the mid-
and upper-60s. Farther north, it is more likely that cool and damp conditions
will continue, with temperatures likely being fairly stagnant in the 50s.
Tonight, a cold front will begin to clear precipitation from west to east
across the region, with drier weather expected to continue Saturday into
Sunday.
