episode_narrativeThe unseasonably warm and dry fall allowed drought conditions to worsen. The Palmer Drought Index fell into the severe category during the month. Total rainfall for the month of November at Paducah was 0.90 inches, which is 3.42 inches below normal. Since the official growing season was over, crop damage was no longer a major concern. As a result of temperatures in the 70s, gusty winds, and low humidity, wildfire activity was above normal. The governor of Kentucky banned all outdoor burning statewide. One of the largest fires consumed about 200 acres of land near Mortons Gap in southern Hopkins County. Another fire burned about 50 acres of the Green River State Forest in Henderson County. Very few if any structures were lost in wildland fires. One exception was in Christian County, where a barn was destroyed.
