FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR MUCH OF WRN NC...NW SC AND NE GA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREENVILLE-SPARTANBURG SC
1241 PM EST TUE JAN 20 2026
..LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY THROUGH WEDNESDAY
DISCUSSION
1. WIDESPREAD LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY (BELOW 25%) THIS AFTERNOON,
AND IN SOME LOCATIONS SIMILARLY LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY DEVELOPS
AGAIN WEDNESDAY. DRY CONDITIONS MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH AN INCREASED
DANGER OF WILDFIRES WHERE FUEL MOISTURES ARE SUFFICIENTLY LOW.
2. A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE AREA WEDNESDAY EVENING INTO
FRIDAY BRINGING THE CHANCE FOR WINTRY PRECIPITATION ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE NORTH CAROLINA MOUNTAINS WHICH MAY LEAD TO MINOR TRAVEL
IMPACTS. TEMPERATURES WILL BE WARM ENOUGH FOR ALL RAIN EAST OF
THE NORTH CAROLINA MOUNTAINS.
3. A POTENTIAL WINTER STORM SYSTEM MAY IMPACT THE AREA THIS
WEEKEND BUT DETAILS REGARDING PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS AND TYPE
REMAIN UNCERTAIN. FOR NOW IT APPEARS THAT MUCH OF THE FORECAST
AREA WILL HAVE A 50% CHANCE OF MODERATE OVERALL WINTER STORM
IMPACTS WHICH COULD LEAD TO HAZARDOUS TRAVEL. COLD TEMPERATURES
SHOULD ALLOW SNOW DEPTH TO LINGER THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY WHICH
MAY KEEP TRAVEL ISSUES AROUND.
4. DANGEROUSLY COLD WIND CHILLS MAY DEVELOP MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY MORNING WHICH COULD RESULT IN HYPOTHERMIA OR FROSTBITE
IF PRECAUTIONS ARE NOT TAKEN.
