670 FNUS53 KPAH 020859 FWFPAH Fire Weather Planning Forecast National Weather Service Paducah KY 359 AM CDT Wed Jul 2 2025 .DISCUSSION... Dry conditions will continue through Saturday as high pressure dominates the weather. Deeper mixing to around 6000 feet is expected the next several days, but weaker transport winds will lead to poor smoke dispersion. RH`s actually drop below 50 percent for the next couple afternoons, particularly across Missouri and Illinois. Our next rain chance arrives Sunday into early next week.
