FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR WEST TEXAS/SOUTHEAST NEW MEXICO
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIDLAND/ODESSA TX
137 AM CDT THU JUN 4 2026
DISCUSSION
RECENT WETTING RAINS AND GOOD OVERNIGHT RECOVERY ALONG WITH MIN
RH ABOVE CRITICAL 15% THROUGH THIS WEEKEND WILL KEEP FUEL ERCS AND
FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS LOW. THERE IS STILL A LOW CHANCE OF FIRE
STARTS FROM LIGHTNING, BUT ABOVE AVERAGE FUEL AND SOIL MOISTURE
WILL LIMIT FIRE SPREAD. WARMER AND DRIER WEATHER RETURNS LATER IN
THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH MIN RH NEAR OR BELOW
CRITICAL 15% FROM THE PRESIDIO VALLEY INTO GUADALUPES AND
SACRAMENTO FOOTHILLS. HOWEVER, LIGHT 20-FT WINDS AND FUEL ERCS
REMAINING BELOW THE 50TH PERCENTILE WILL STILL LIMIT FIRE RISK.
FOR POINT-SPECIFIC FORECASTS PLEASE SEE THE POINT FIRE WEATHER
MATRIX PRODUCT ISSUED BY THE MIDLAND/ODESSA NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE OFFICE.
