Fire Weather Planning Forecast for NE Wyoming and WRN South Dakota
National Weather Service Rapid City SD
244 AM MST Fri Feb 28 2025

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 9 AM THIS MORNING TO 5 PM MST
THIS AFTERNOON FOR GUSTY WINDS AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY...

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM THIS MORNING TO 6 PM CST
THIS EVENING FOR GUSTY WINDS AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY...

.DISCUSSION...Critical fire weather conditions are expected across south
central SD this afternoon. While RHs will be above critical
thresholds (25 to 30%), the strong northwest winds (gusts of 45 to
50 mph), receptive fuels, and unseasonably warm conditions (upper
50s to low 60s) will support the development of critical fire
weather conditions across south central SD this afternoon.
Elsewhere across the western SD plains into northeastern WY,
elevated to near critical fire wx conditions are possible this
afternoon. Above average temperatures and low relative humidities
will continue to support elevated to near-critical fire weather
conditions Saturday and Sunday. Winds, however, will be lighter
which will preclude the development of critical fire weather
conditions.

Winds will pick up again on Monday as a storm system approaches
the region, though relative humidities are expected increase as
moisture associated with said storm system moves into the region.
