Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Kentucky
National Weather Service Jackson KY
345 PM EDT Fri Oct 4 2024

.DISCUSSION...A few isolated showers and a possible thunderstorm,
mainly just for the Tennessee and Virginia border counties will fade
out quickly late this afternoon and evening. A somewhat better
chance for rainfall will come to a portion of far eastern Kentucky
on Sunday evening and overnight as a cold front sweeps through
eastern Kentucky; however, rainfall amounts look to be minimal, in
most cases a few hundredths of an inch, or less. Behind that front,
confidence is high for conditions to be dry with temperatures
dropping to near and below normal and holding there for much of next
week.
