As we get ready to transition into October, state officials have a warning: Beware of outdoor burning.
Kentucky’s fall forest fire season starts Saturday and will last until December 15th. During that period, outdoor burning is banned between the hours of 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. if the fire is within 150 feet of any woodland, brush or fields containing dry grass or other materials that could catch on fire.
Burning is also not recommended if it is windy.
