Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southwest Arkansas...
Northwest Louisiana...East Texas...and Extreme Southeast Oklahoma
National Weather Service Shreveport LA
300 PM CDT Mon May 20 2024

.DISCUSSION...

Low clouds will move into most of the fire districts overnight,
except those in Northeast Louisiana and adjacent South-Central
Arkansas. Can`t rule out some patchy fog, especially across Deep
East Texas around daybreak, but it should be brief. The low clouds
will hang around for most of the morning, with scattered CU to
follow in the afternoon. Because of this, mixing heights will
struggle to climb over 3500 ft in our East Texas and adjacent SE
Oklahoma districts. The remaining districts should climb above
4000 ft. Afternoon RH values will generally range from 45 to 55
percent. Rain chances will return to portions of the districts on
Wednesday, with the best chances along and north of Interstate 30
corridor. Expect mostly cloudy conditions, with afternoon mixing
heights between 3500 to 4000 ft. Min RH values will be on the
increase to between 50 to 60 percent. Hot conditions will remain
over the next couple of days, with highs ranging from the upper
80s to lower 90s.
