Fire Weather Planning Forecast for the MidSouth
National Weather Service Memphis TN
330 AM CDT Sun Aug 24 2025
.DISCUSSION...
There will likely be some fire weather concerns over the next
week, with low minRH values and relatively dry fuels across the
Mid-South. MinRH values will likely fall below 40% in the
afternoons Sunday and Monday, before falling below 30% Wednesday
and Thursday. KBDI does appear to be > 500 for much of the Mid-
South as well. The one good thing is that winds speeds will remain
light through the forecast period, curbing any major concerns.
