Fire Weather Planning Forecast
National Weather Service Paducah KY
316 AM CDT Wed May 8 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Thunderstorm chances are high today and tonight, as a powerful
storm system makes its approach and passage. Storms are expected
to become severe, with all severe hazards in play, as well as
localized heavy rainfall capable of flooding, and frequent deadly
lightning. It will remain very warm and humid until this system
completes its passage, after which, a refreshingly cooler and
less humid air mass will take hold by Friday and last through the
weekend.
