Red Flag Warning For Most Of The Tri-State

The National Weather Service in Paducah has placed most of the tri-state under a Red Flag Warning.

It’s in effect from 11:00 to 7:00 in Vanderburgh, Warrick, Gibson, Pike and Posey counties in Indiana.

Also, the Pennyrile region of Western Kentucky.

This is because of wind and low relative humidity in our region.

Due to these conditions be sure to properly discard cigarettes, avoid parking on dry grass, and check trailers for dragging chains.

Also avoid activities that cause open flames or sparks.

Fires that develop will likely spread rapidly.
