Fire Weather Planning Forecast
National Weather Service Paducah KY
237 PM CDT Wed Sep 18 2024

.DISCUSSION...

Dry conditions will continue through Saturday as high pressure
maintains control. Elevated fire weather conditions are possible
again on Thursday due to low RH`s in the 30 to 40 percent range.
Poor smoke dispersion is expected on Thursday despite deep mixing
due to the light winds in place. Transport winds increase out of
the southwest on Friday leading to somewhat better smoke dispersion.
Rain chances return Sunday into Monday, with the possibility of
additional chances at some point next week as well.
