Fire Weather Planning Forecast for the MidSouth
National Weather Service Memphis TN
330 AM CDT Wed Sep 3 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Patchy fog is expected tonight. Isolated showers and storms will
develop south of I-40 on Wednesday afternoon and near the
Tennessee River on Thursday. Total rainfall amounts will be
limited and do little to alleviate drought concerns in the very
near term. Fuels will continue to dry. Some fire danger concerns
will continue though winds will remain generally on the lighter
side. There is a chance of wetting rains over at least part of
the area Friday night into Saturday morning as a cold front moves
through the region.
