DAY 1 FIRE WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1043 AM CST SAT JAN 31 2026
VALID 311700Z - 011200Z
..NO CRITICAL AREAS
NO CHANGES TO DAY 1 FIRE WEATHER OUTLOOK WERE NEEDED. STRONGER
NORTHWEST WINDS OF 15-25 MPH ASSOCIATED WITH A STRONG COLD FRONT
WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD INTO THE FL PENINSULA TODAY. RELATIVE
HUMIDITY WITHIN THE DRY, POST-FRONTAL AIR MASS WILL FALL TO AROUND
30 PERCENT THIS AFTERNOON, CONCENTRATED ALONG THE SOUTHERN AL/GA AND
FL PANHANDLE REGION. HIGH TEMPERATURES PRIMARILY IN THE 30S F
COUPLED WITH MARGINAL FUEL DRYNESS WILL LIMIT A BROADER FIRE WEATHER
THREAT ACROSS THE REGION WHERE DRY AND BREEZY CONDITIONS ALIGN.
HOWEVER, POCKETS OF DRIER FUELS MAY SUPPORT A LOCALLY ELEVATED
WILDFIRE SPREAD POTENTIAL THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS THE NORTHERN GULF
COAST.

..SYNOPSIS
A DEEPENING SURFACE LOW OFF THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST WILL DRIVE 15-20
MPH SURFACE WINDS DOWN THE FLORIDA PENINSULA TODAY. IT IS POSSIBLE
THAT MARGINAL RH REDUCTIONS MAY OCCUR ALONG THE FLORIDA-GEORGIA LINE
(30-35% DURING THE AFTERNOON). HOWEVER, LIGHT PRECIPITATION WAS
OBSERVED ON FRIDAY WHICH WILL DAMPEN FUELS. COUPLED WITH
TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S F, FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL LIKELY REMAIN
MINIMAL. ELSEWHERE WITHIN THE CONUS, COMBINATIONS OF COOL/COLD
TEMPERATURES, LIGHT WINDS, AND POOR FUEL RECEPTIVENESS WILL PRECLUDE
CONCERNS.
