Grass Fire Danger Statement
National Weather Service Fort Worth TX
314 AM CDT Tue Aug 25 2026

...ELEVATED FIRE THREAT THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS NORTH TEXAS AND
WESTERN CENTRAL TEXAS...

Very hot temperatures of 105+ degrees and afternoon RH values of
15-25% will create a favorable setup for fire starts today. South
to southwest winds of 10-15 mph with occasional gusts up to 20
mph will also raise the potential for fire spread. Mid-level
clouds may dampen fire activity in the late morning hours;
however, some locations in eastern North TX could see locally gusty
winds and temporary, abrupt wind shifts during this time. Relative
humidity will rebound into the 30s and 40s by late evening,
reducing the fire threat.

Extreme care is urged during all outside activities where there
is a potential for grass fires to get started. Avoid outside
burning and welding. Do not toss lit cigarette butts outside.
Report wildfires to the nearest fire department or law
enforcement office quickly.
