Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southwest Arkansas...
Northwest Louisiana...East Texas...and Extreme Southeast Oklahoma
National Weather Service Shreveport LA
302 PM CDT Wed Aug 27 2025

.DISCUSSION...

An increasingly wet and unsettled weather pattern is expected as
we progress from mid to late week as a cold front advances into
our fire districts. In the meantime, we still have one more warm
day on Thursday with high temperatures mainly ranging from the mid
80s to mid 90s. Minimum RH values will generally range between
50-60 percent for most areas on Thursday afternoon except for our
SE OKlahoma and adjacent SW Arkansas fire districts where more
clouds and rain will likely hold min RH values closer to 70-75
percent. Total rainfall amounts through this weekend will likely
range from 1-3 inches for most areas with isolated higher amounts
possible.
