Smoke Information From National Weather Service due to last nights barn fire involving nearly 500 hay bales.
Attached you will find the smoke dispersion map, valid for this afternoon. Light winds, and a layer of warm air around 4000 ft may help trap some of the smoke and prevent it from ventilating out of the area. The worst air quality is still expected to be north of Lawrenceburg near the fire, and should have smoke dispersion slowly moving to the west-northwest.
Are you paying the community for the toxic air quality? EDIT:YALL IM SO SORRY I READ THAT AS A CONTROL BURN. NOT AN ACCIDENTAL BURN. I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND THE BACKLASH…..
Thank you for the info. I hope no animals were involved.
Been pretty clear here in Alton rd

Is this close to me? It looks like it's going towards Versailles.
Prayers for the family.
Last Night Anderson County Fire Department worked vigorously for several hours in reference to a hay barn fire on Jenny Lillard Rd.
Anderson County Fire Department would like to let residents in this area know due to heavy smoke lingering, drive with caution.
Approximately 500 bales will continue to burn for around 2-3 weeks and will be monitored by ACFD. Please allow yourself extra time and be cautious in this area.
Our thought and prayers go out to this family.
Thank you to every unit on your efforts and hard work on this call.
Where on Jenny Lillard ?
