Letter: Also trapped by pickup line Brad Byington writes: We also were trapped by a pickup line. But it was almost on the Square across the street from the Annex building. Most of the time in Kentucky people are very gracious about allowing you to pull out. But not for the pick up people. I had my turn signal on and waited and waited and waited and waited and finally just shut off the car and waited some more until the traffic finally cleared 20 minutes later.Comments re: Carol Perkins: The Line 2021-10-03 09:02:19 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Fall Forest Fire Hazard Season in Kentucky By John Mura/Robin Hartman Frankfort, KY - With wildfires raging in the western United States, Kentuckians are reminded that as the state enters its Fall Forest Fire Hazard Season on October 1, their actions can make a big difference in the number and severity of fires in the commonwealth. Wildfires are more than 99% human-caused in Kentucky. People deliberately setting forests on fire is the number one cause, followed by the burning of fields or debris, according to Brandon Howard, Director of the Division of Forestry. Other causes are sparks from faulty equipment, downed electrical lines, children playing with fire, and escaped campfires. "The safety of our communities and the protection of our state's vast forest resources is our top priority," Howard said. "But for our state to keep fires to a minimum this fall season, every Kentuckian has to be intentional and responsible." In an effort to reduce accidental fires, burning restrictions are in place during fall fire season when fallen leaves can quickly spread flames. Beginning Oct. 1 through Dec. 15, it is illegal under state law to burn anything within 150 feet of any woodland or brushland between the daylight hours of 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. Delaying burning until late in the evening when humidity levels are typically higher and winds are generally lower makes it harder for fires to escape.
