National Weather Service Billings MT
309 PM MDT Tue Sep 24 2024

...Red Flag Warning in effect from noon to 8 PM MDT Wednesday for
   portions of Southeast Montana... and all of Eastern Sheridan
   County Wyoming...

.DISCUSSION...

...Elevated Fire Weather Conditions Wednesday and Thursday for
Sheridan, WY and portions of SE MT...

Red Flag Warning has been issued for tomorrow. A combination of
temperatures 15-20 degrees above average, RH values in the low to
mid teens, and winds gusting near 30 mph will create critical
fire conditions in the warned area. Fire weather conditions are
expected to be worst for eastern Sheridan County and Powder River
County. Locations in Treasure County and Central Rosebud in Sioux
Ranger District are unlikely to see Red Flag conditions. Thursday
will be similar with favorable fire conditions limited to
locations near the Wyoming border. Winds are not expected to be as
strong Thursday. Much above average temperatures and dry
conditions are expected to continue through the weekend. Torgerson
