FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS...
NORTHWEST LOUISIANA
..EAST TEXAS
AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
311 PM CDT FRI AUG 14 2026
DISCUSSION
INCREASINGLY HOT AND DRY CONDITIONS WILL RESULT IN RAPIDLY DRYING
VEGETATION AND FUELS AS SOIL MOISTURE IS FURTHER DEPLETED IN THIS
BUILDING HEAT WAVE WITH MORE WIDESPREAD TRIPLE-DIGIT TEMPERATURES.
FLASH DROUGHT CONDITIONS ALREADY APPEAR TO BE UNDERWAY WITH SPOT
FIRES POPPING UP OVER THE PAST WEEK, AND ELEVATED FIRE DANGER WILL
ONLY ESCALATE FURTHER IN THIS CURRENTLY STAGNANT WEATHER PATTERN.
THEREFORE, THE THREAT OF WILDFIRE STARTS AND POTENTIAL FOR RAPID
GROWTH WILL ONLY INCREASE THROUGH THIS WEEKEND AS TEMPERATURES
CLIMB HIGHER AND DAILY MIN RH DROPS LOWER INTO THE 25-35 PERCENT
RANGE. WINDS WILL ALSO SHIFT MORE SOUTHWESTERLY, RESULTING IN EVEN
DRIER AIR MIXING DOWN TO THE SFC DURING THE HOURS OF PEAK HEATING.
A FIRE DANGER STATEMENT IS ALREADY IN EFFECT FOR SATURDAY AND MORE
LIKELY TO FOLLOW INTO NEXT WEEK.
