An unseasonably warm and moist air mass had settled across eastern Kentucky leading to record breaking temperatures at the Jackson Weather Office and the London Corbin Airport between the 16th and 21st of April. Jackson saw several days in a row with record high temperatures as well as maximum low records. On the 19th the mercury soared to a record high of 89 degrees at Jackson and a record tying 87 degrees at London. The low temperature at Jackson was a balmy 69 degrees good enough for a daily as well as a monthly maximum low temperature record. (NWS Jackson)
