FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR THE MIDSOUTH
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN
330 PM CDT FRI OCT 23 2026
DISCUSSION
ELEVATED FIRE DANGER CONCERNS WILL CONTINUE AS RELATIVE HUMIDITY
(RH) VALUES RANGE BETWEEN 20-30% THIS AFTERNOON. A SLIGHT
INCREASE IN MOISTURE, DUE TO WEAK SOUTHERLY FLOW, WILL RAISE RH
VALUES ABOVE THE 30% CRITICAL THRESHOLD ON SATURDAY. 20 FT WINDS
WILL REMAIN LIGHT COMBINED WITH SLOWLY RISING RH VALUES; ELEVATED
FIRE DANGER IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO CONTINUE. ONGOING DROUGHT AND
FUELS WILL STILL NEED TO BE MONITORED. EXPECT PATCHY, TO LOCALLY
DENSE, RADIATION FOG DEVELOPMENT EACH MORNING THROUGH THE PERIOD.
