We have seen quite a few inches of much needed rainfall over the past couple of days throughout the Bluegrass. Those impacts are going to be mostly seen on the burn bans in certain cities and counties. On Monday morning, Fayette County lifted a burn ban that had been in effect since September 19.
"With the rain, the cooler temperatures, the higher relative humidity we are not going to reinstate that burn ban at this point in time," Lexington Fire Department Battalion Chief Jordan Saas said.
Saas still encourages people to use caution when using fire pits or grilling.
While some county burn bans have expired, a burn ban still remains in effect for the National forests despite all of the rainfall. It is just a "lull in the battle."
