FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN/CENTRAL MO AND SOUTHWEST IL
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAINT LOUIS MO
330 AM CST WED NOV 20 2024
DISCUSSION
DRY AND WINDY CONDITIONS WILL PROMOTE EXCELLENT VENTILATION RATES
ACROSS THE REGION, BUT WILL ALSO THREATEN SOME DEGREE OF VERY
ISOLATED ELEVATED FIRE DANGER. WHILE THE METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS
FAR EXCEED THE CRITERIA FOR THIS THREAT, FUELS ARE STILL
RELATIVELY WET FROM RECENT RAIN AND A TANGIBLE ELEVATED FIRE
DANGER WILL LIKELY NOT MATERIALIZE. OBSERVED KBDI VALUES ARE
UNIFORMLY LOW ACROSS THE REGION, WHICH FURTHER SUPPORTS THE LACK
OF DRY DEAD FUELS AVAILABLE FOR ERRATIC FIRE BEHAVIOR.
RH VALUES RECOVER TOMORROW AS TEMPERATURES DROP FURTHER INTO THE
40S, THOUGH GUSTY WINDS UP TO 30MPH WILL PERSIST. BECAUSE OF THE
SHALLOWER MIXING HEIGHT, VENTILATION RATES WILL BE SLIGHTLY LESS
EFFICIENT BUT STILL QUITE GOOD. RAIN CHANCES REMAIN NEAR-ZERO
UNTIL EARLY NEXT WEEK, WITH A GRADUAL WARMUP FORECASTSTARTING
SATURDAY.
