Fire Weather Planning Forecast For Extreme Southeast Arkansas,
Northeast Louisiana, and Central Mississippi
National Weather Service Jackson MS
223 PM CDT Tue Mar 26 2024

.DISCUSSION... Conditions will be dry this week as a high pressure
system builds into our forecast area from the northwest. Winds
will be light and variable tonight before shifting to the north on
Wednesday. Min RHs will drop to the 25 - 30% range on later in the
week, but given moist fuels, fire danger will not be a concern.
Fog is not anticipated at this time.
