As fall settles in, meteorologists predict above-average temperatures across eastern Kentucky, with rainfall expected to remain normal for the season.
Alex Vorst, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Jackson, noted that humidity levels may vary daily depending on airflow patterns. “It all depends on where the high pressure builds and whether we get moisture coming in from the Gulf,” Vorst said.

Autumn also brings increased fire risks. Vorst warned residents to stay aware of local burn bans. “If we continue to stay dry, the chances of wildfires will grow,” he said.
The fall burn season runs from October 1 to December 15. During this period, it is illegal to burn anything within 150 feet of woodland or brushland between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. Residents are urged to follow local regulations to prevent fires.
