Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western and Central North Dakota
National Weather Service Bismarck ND
208 PM CDT Wed Oct 15 2025
.DISCUSSION...
Fire weather concerns will remain low through the period due to
upcoming precipitation and elevated minimum relative humidity. An
upper level low is forecast to move through the region tomorrow
bringing wide spread rainfall across the western and central half
of the state. As a result there are high probabilities of over an
inch of rain through Thursday out west. Windy conditions are
anticipated Friday and Saturday but the minimum relative humidity
is forecast to be around 40-50 percent. Conditions will dry out
this weekend as no systems are forecast to move through the
region.
