Fire Weather Planning Forecast
National Weather Service Paducah KY
226 PM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Scattered showers and storms will continue until a cold front
makes passage tonight. A few lingering showers are possible across
west Kentucky on Tuesday, otherwise dry conditions are forecast
through at least Saturday. Humidity levels will trend lower in the
coming days as northerly winds usher in a drier airmass. Fair to
good smoke dispersion is expected on Tuesday thanks to mixing up
to around 5000 feet and healthy northerly transport winds. Winds
trend lighter on Wednesday and Thursday, so despite deeper mixing
which may exceed 7000 feet by Thursday, dispersion will trend
poor again.
