Fire Weather Planning Forecast For Extreme Southeast Arkansas,
Northeast Louisiana, and Central Mississippi
National Weather Service Jackson MS
245 PM CDT Thu Oct 9 2025
.DISCUSSION...Dry weather will prevail over the next several days in the
wake of a weak cold front. Afternoon minimum relative humidity
values will generally hover between 35-45% into Saturday.
Transport winds will have a northerly component during this time,
but winds won`t be as breezy as they were on Thursday. However,
with the continued lack of rain and no appreciable rain chances in
the near future, fire danger will need to be monitored closely
heading into next week. No significant concern for fog exists
Friday, nor Saturday morning.
