Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central and South Central
Minnesota and West Central Wisconsin
National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN
339 AM CDT Mon Mar 18 2024

...ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS LIKELY TODAY THROUGH
WEDNESDAY...

.DISCUSSION...Fire weather concerns will remain elevated today
through Wednesday. The main issues today and Wednesday will be
RH values, which are expected to drop to between 20-30 percent
both this afternoon and Wednesday afternoon, albeit with winds
that will be breezy but fall short of critical levels. On
Tuesday, minimum RH values will increase to 35-45 percent but
winds will be stronger, from the northwest at 20-25mph with
gusts 30-40mph. Fire weather conditions improve Thursday, when
light snow is likely. Precipitation chances then remain in
the forecast into the weekend with cold temperatures continuing.
