Fire Weather Planning Forecast for the MidSouth
National Weather Service Memphis TN
339 AM CST Fri Feb 28 2025

.DISCUSSION...Rain-free weather will persist across the area into
the weekend. Minimum relative humidity values are expected to
drop between 20 to 30 percent this afternoon. Southwest 20 ft
winds will increase to 10-12 mph with occasional gusts ahead of an
approaching cold front. These low relative humidity values
combined with the elevated 20 ft winds may result in an elevated
fire danger across much of the area this afternoon.
