Firefighters urge caution this Fourth

As fireworks displays are being cancelled across Kentucky due to the sweltering heat and dry conditions, Owen County officials are warning residents about the dangers of fireworks during drought-like conditions.
A heat advisory was issued for Owen County by the National Weather Service nearly every day last week with temperatures often reaching the triple digits.
A heat advisory was once again issued Monday.
Owenton Fire Chief David Lilly said the use of fireworks in dry conditions can be a big headache for firefighters.
