STANFORD — Heat and dry conditions have continued to persist in Lincoln County, preventing the Lincoln County Fair from featuring its traditional July 4 fireworks show tonight.
Fair President Mike Poynter said until the county gets enough rain for officials to lift a county-wide fireworks ban, the fireworks show is on hold.
After storms that caused torrential downpours in nearby counties rolled through the area Sunday without touching Lincoln, the county did see a miniscule amount of rain Tuesday.
According to Kentucky Mesonet's weather monitoring station in northern Lincoln County, there was less than one-tenth of an inch of rainfall Tuesday.
