Fire Weather Planning Forecast for South Central Texas
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
158 PM CDT Sat Oct 18 2025

.DISCUSSION...

A cold front will move through the region tonight. Much drier
post-frontal conditions are forecast Sunday, along with gusty
north to northeast winds in the morning through early afternoon.
Some gusts could approach 30 mph across the Hill Country and along
and east of the I-35 corridor as RH values fall into the mid 20s
around midday. Given the status of the dry fuel conditions, these
forecast wind speeds and RH values will lead to near-critical fire
weather conditions across the Hill Country and along and east of
the I-35 corridor. The wind speeds are forecast to gradually
weaken mid to late afternoon when minimum RH values fall into the
mid teen to mid 20s, so confidence of reaching Red Flag Criteria
is currently low. At a minimum, a Fire Danger Statement will
likely need to be issued later today for Sunday.

A southerly return flow strengthens on Monday, however significant
moisture return will likely not occur. Southerly wind gusts
between 20-30 mph coinciding with minimum RH values in the mid 20s
to mid 30s will lead to elevated to near-critical fire weather
conditions across the entire region by Monday afternoon.
