Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Florida
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
300 PM EDT Thu Apr 17 2025
.DISCUSSION...
A relatively dry airmass remains across west central and southwest
Florida. Daytime heating will cause relative humidity values to
drop to around or just below critical levels the next few afternoons
creating elevated fire weather conditions. However, winds are
expected to remain below 15 MPH which will preclude Red Flag
conditions, but they will be strong enough to have rather high
dispersions.
Fog potential...No significant fog is expected.
