Fire Weather Planning Forecast
National Weather Service Paducah KY
139 PM CST Fri Nov 7 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Isolated to scattered showers, and a thunderstorm or two, are
forecast through the afternoon hours in Western Kentucky.
Additional light showers are forecast Saturday night through
Sunday, with some possible mixing of flurries late weekend as
frigid air moves in. Winds will be breezy through the forecast
period with breezy WSW winds this afternoon, a strong cold front
moving through Saturday night, and breezy winds Tuesday. Strong
dispersion is forecast on Sunday due to the strong
northwesterlies. Lingering light precip chances late weekend have
raised the weekend min-RH forecast a little, with RHs of 30-40%
becoming more widespread early next week.
