Fire Weather Planning Forecast for South Central Texas
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
241 AM CDT Fri Aug 16 2024

.DISCUSSION...

A hot and dry weather pattern will persist across South Central
Texas through the middle of next week. Minimum humidities remain
above 30 percent over areas along and east of I-35, and fall into
the 20s west of I-35. Some locally elevated fire weather
conditions will be possible along the Rio Grande where the
southeast afternoon breezes are elevated and the RH values could
fall to 20-25%. The longer range models show the ongoing pattern
persisting beyond this forecast likely through the remainder of
August. As a result, grasses will continue to dry and may become
dormant or cured. This may lead to increasingly common elevated
fire weather conditions, especially across the Rio Grande plains.
