436 FNUS53 KLBF 060851 FWFLBF Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western and North Central for Nebraska National Weather Service North Platte NE 351 AM CDT Mon Oct 6 2025 .DISCUSSION... Fire weather concerns remain low through the middle of this week as cooler temperatures keep humidity values at or above 35 percent for the local area. Precipitation chances will favor Monday morning before becoming more sparse with QPF potential remaining limited to a couple tenths of an inch for a select few. Fire weather concerns will increase for late week as broad upper- level ridging builds in across the High Plains. Daytime highs will climb to the upper 70s and lower 80s as a result, or around 10-20F above normal. At this time, critical conditions do not appear likely any one day though localized elevated conditions appear probable with greatest concern being Thursday and again Saturday.
