FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR THE MIDSOUTH
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
330 PM CDT TUE OCT 27 2026
DISCUSSION
ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL BE ALLEVIATED AS WE MOVE INTO
THE LATTER HALF OF THE WORK WEEK. THIS IS DUE TO SLIGHTLY HIGHER
DEWPOINTS SETTLING OVER THE MID-SOUTH. ONE FINAL RANGELAND FIRE
DANGER STATEMENT MAY BE NEEDED FOR WEDNESDAY, BUT THEREAFTER WE
ANTICIPATE AN END TO FIRE WEATHER PRODUCTS. WETTING RAIN CHANCES
RETURN SATURDAY AND PERSIST THROUGH THE UPCOMING HALLOWEEN
WEEKEND. UNTIL THEN, EXPECT EACH MORNING TO FEATURE PATCHY FOG IN
LOW-LYING AREAS.
