024 FNUS54 KMAF 240734 FWFMAF Fire Weather Planning Forecast for West Texas/Southeast New Mexico National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX 234 AM CDT Tue Sep 24 2024 .DISCUSSION... Fall has arrived and cooler temperatures will help keep the fire weather threat low this week. The only area of any concern will be west of the Pecos River which has missed out on much of the recent rainfall, and lower afternoon humidities will better cure fuels. Light to modest winds will prevent erratic fire behavior. Fair to good recovery is expected each night. && For point-specific forecasts please see the Point Fire Weather Matrix product issued by the Midland/Odessa National Weather Service Office.
