Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southern Wisconsin
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
234 PM CDT Mon Sep 29 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Very warm temperatures and falling dew points have allowed
relative humidities to fall into the 20 percents over far south-
central and southwestern Wisconsin this afternoon. Expect these
readings to continue through sunset, with a few readings in the
upper teens possible where temperatures warm faster than currently
forecast. Light winds will preclude any widespread elevated fire
weather conditions. Easterly winds will become established Tuesday
through Wednesday, resulting in modestly higher relative
humidities each afternoon. Winds will turn southerly late in the
week, resulting in the return of well above-normal high
temperatures Thursday and Friday. Rain-free conditions prevail
through at least the end of the week, with isolated shower and
thunderstorm chances not returning until Saturday evening at the
earliest.
