FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS...
NORTHWEST LOUISIANA
..EAST TEXAS
AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SHREVEPORT LA
356 AM CST TUE FEB 24 2026
DISCUSSION
WINDS WILL QUICKLY INCREASE AND VEER SOUTHERLY THIS MORNING AS
HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS EAST OF OUR FIRE DISTRICTS. 20FT WIND SPEEDS
WILL GENERALLY RANGE FROM 10-15 MPH BY LATE MORNING THROUGH THIS
AFTERNOON WITH HIGHER GUSTS BETWEEN 18-25 MPH. CONCURRENTLY, THE
WIND DIRECTION WILL ALSO SHIFT A BIT MORE SWLY WITH MUCH WARMER
TEMPERATURES TODAY IN THE MID 60S TO LOWER 70S AND MIN RH VALUES
AVERAGING BETWEEN 20-25 PERCENT. GIVEN THESE PARAMETERS, ELEVATED
FIRE DANGER CONDITIONS WILL EXIST ACROSS ALL DISTRICTS TODAY WITH
THE THREAT OF RAPID FIRE SPREAD, ESPECIALLY THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH
EARLY EVENING BEFORE WIND SPEEDS DROP OFF SLIGHTLY AND RH VALUES
SLOWLY RECOVER. SIMILAR WINDY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY
WITH EVEN WARMER TEMPERATURES, BUT MIN RH VALUES WILL CONTINUE TO
GRADUALLY RECOVER AS SOUTHERLY WINDS DRAW ADDITIONAL GULF MOISTURE
NORTHWARD.
