...High Fire Danger Today...

Low to very low humidity, gusty winds, and very dry fuels will
combine to result in High Fire Danger through a couple of hours
past sunset today.

A burn ban is currently in place for McCreary County. Check for
any other county burn bans or restrictions that may be in place.

Remember, Kentucky regulations make it illegal to burn between
the hours of 6 AM and 6 PM within 150 feet of any woodlands or
brushlands during the Spring Forest Fire Season that runs until
April 30th.
