Spot Forecast for Henry County Learn & Burn...KDFWR
National Weather Service Louisville KY
1000 AM EDT Sat Oct 24 2026

Forecast is based on ignition time of 0800 EDT on October 26.
If conditions become unrepresentative...contact the National Weather
Service.

.DISCUSSION...Dry conditions persist on Monday as high pressure is
firmly established over the whole region. Look for temperatures above
normal for this time of year in the mid 70s along with min RH values
dropping down to around 40 percent. Mixing heights look more than
sufficient above 4 K feet, however the main limiting factor for
good burning conditions will be the weak wind fields and overall
impact on dispersion. It is expected to be in the poor range and
add in some upper sky cover and filtered sunshine and this adds
confidence dispersion will suffer.
