Fire Weather Planning Forecast For Extreme Southeast Arkansas,
Northeast Louisiana, and Central Mississippi
National Weather Service Jackson MS
252 PM CDT Sat Oct 5 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Aftn dryness is ongoing, with humidity mixing out above critical
levels (35-50%). Some patchy fog cannot be ruled out late tonight
in low-lying river valleys and sheltered areas but confidence is
lower on any dense fog. A dry period is expected through next
week, with increasing gusty sfc/20ft wind in the wake of a dry
front. Aftn dryness will be closer to critical levels (30-45%),
especially for northwest fire districts. Combined with some gusty
winds, low fire danger is possible through mid week (Tuesday-
Wednesday). /DC/
