Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Eastern Kentucky
National Weather Service Jackson KY
722 AM EDT Thu Jul 4 2024

.DISCUSSION...Summertime heat and humidity will persist
through Friday. This will fuel showers and thunderstorms
ahead of a cold front. Drier weather and a slight reprieve
from the sultry conditions will arrive behind the cold front
during the weekend. Warmer and more humid conditions along
with a potential for thunderstorms will make a comeback on
Monday, and last into the week.
