Fire Weather Planning Forecast for S MS and SE LA
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
1118 AM CST Tue Nov 3 2026

.DISCUSSION...

Warm and moist conditions will continue ahead of an approaching
cold front through tonight. Showers and a few thunderstorms will
be possible through Wednesday morning before drier air moves into
the area behind the front. Patchy light to moderate fog is also
expected to develop ahead of the front tonight over much of the
region. Min RH values will decrease Thursday and Friday to
between 40 and 60 percent, although winds will remain generally
light. Another weak front will move through Friday with limited
precipitation expected. A stronger front late in the weekend
cloud bring an additional decrease in temperatures and relative
humidity, potentially increasing fire weather concerns as fuels
begin drying out again. Minimum RH values could fall into the
25 to 40 percent range by Sunday and Monday.
