Climatologically extreme high forecast temperatures a good 10 to 15 degrees above their seasonal normals will combine with the effects of humidity to increasingly make this week a dangerous period of prolonged heat. Heat index values hit triple digits every day and may top out up to 109 degrees. Actual air temperatures reach to near or even above 100 degrees multiple days in a row. Numerous nights might have warm record overnight low temperatures in the mid 70s as well, so there is really no significant break offered from the heat as we head into the holiday weekend and all the numerous activities and outdoor events that may be planned.
About
Redd Hollow Campground is one of eleven self-service campgrounds scattered throughout Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area in Trigg County, Kentucky. Situated along Kentucky Lake, the campground provides year-round lakeside camping for those seeking a quieter, more primitive experience compared to the larger developed campgrounds in the area. The campground features designated campsites with picnic tables, fire rings, grills, and vault toilets. A boat ramp provides direct lake access. Trash pickup is provided, but there is no potable water, so campers must bring their own supply. Payment is self-service: campers fill out a fee envelope and deposit $10 cash or check in the iron ranger tube within 30 minutes of setting up camp. Quiet hours are enforced from 11pm to 6am. Pets are welcome but must remain on a leash of 6 feet or less and cannot be left unattended. Campfires are permitted in the fire rings provided. Maximum stay is 21 consecutive days.
Directions
Follow signs along Woodlands Scenic Trace (Forest Service Road 100).
