FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR S/C NEBRASKA AND N/C KANSAS
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
1042 AM CDT THU APR 23 2026
...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM CDT THIS EVENING FOR THE
ENTIRE NWS HASTING FORECAST AREA...
DISCUSSION
- UPDATE REGARDING REST OF TODAY:
THE RED FLAG WARNING PREVIOUSLY IN EFFECT FOR ROUGHLY THE
NORTHWEST HALF OF OUR FORECAST AREA (CWA) HAS SINCE BEEN
EXPANDED TO NOW INCLUDE OUR ENTIRE FORECAST AREA (IN EFFECT
UNTIL 8 PM). THE MAIN FORECAST CHANGE THAT PROMPTED THIS
EXPANSION IS THAT WIND SPEEDS/GUSTS WERE INCREASED AS MUCH AS 5
MPH VERSUS PREVIOUS FORECAST. MORE SPECIFICALLY, MUCH OF THE DAY
INTO EARLY EVENING WILL FEATURE SUSTAINED WINDS OUT OF THE WEST-NORTHWEST
15-25 MPH, WITH GUSTS COMMONLY UP TO AROUND 30 MPH (EVEN 35 MPH
ESPECIALLY IN OUR NORTHERN/WESTERN COUNTIES). THE RELATIVE
HUMIDITY (RH) FORECAST HAS CHANGED LITTLE...WITH OUR ENTIRE
FORECAST AREA EXPECTED TO DROP TO AT LEAST 10-15 PERCENT BEHIND
A PASSING COLD FRONT.
THE MOST "MARGINAL" COUNTIES IN THE WARNING (LEAST LIKELY TO
SOLIDLY MEET CRITERIA FOR 3+ HOURS) ARE THOSE IN OUR EXTREME
SOUTHEASTERN CWA (PARTICULARLY THAYER/JEWELL/MITCHELL
COUNTIES). HOWEVER, WITH AT LEAST BRIEF CRITICAL CONDITIONS A
GOOD BET EVEN IN THOSE COUNTIES, OPTED TO EXPAND TO OUR ENTIRE
CWA OUT OF CAUTION.
- FRIDAY:
ALTHOUGH NEAR-CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE A GOOD BET MAINLY
WITHIN THE SOUTHWEST 1/4 OF OUR FORECAST AREA, FORTUNATELY OUTRIGHT-
CRITICAL CONDITIONS ARE NOT ANTICIPATED, AS EAST-SOUTHEASTERLY WIND
GUSTS SHOULD FALL SHORT OF 25+ MPH. HOWEVER, RH WILL AGAIN BE FAIRLY
LOW...WITH MOST OF OUR AREA BOTTOMING OUT 15-25 PERCENT.
