With the month of May now here, spring forest fire season in Kentucky has officially come to an end, but state forestry officials are still urging citizens to utilize caution when burning outside.
The Division of Forestry says that burning is now allowed statewide between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. Burning was prohibited during these times from February 15th until April 30th. When burning, all fires should be attended until extinguished.
