Fire Weather Planning Forecast for South Central Texas
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
321 AM CDT Tue Mar 26 2024

.DISCUSSION...

Today through Thursday, dry and breezy conditions continue across
Val Verde County, Rio Grande Plains, Edwards Plateau, and portions
of the Hill Country. Minimum humidities in the teens to lower 20s
are expected each afternoon. West to northwest winds near 15 mph
and gusty are expected today and Wednesday. Wetting rains early
Monday will keep the Hill Country and areas just to the southwest
of San Antonio with normal to above normal fuel moisture and below
normal grass loading, along with transition green grasses. With
lack of rains and ongoing dry conditions, Val Verde County and the
Edwards Plateau will see increasing fire danger and a lowering of
10 and 100 hour fuel percentiles. However, there are chances of
wetting rains on Wednesday that may provide some relief. Taking
all these variables into account, Near Critical Fire Weather
conditions are expected with Rangeland Fire Danger Statements
likely across Val Verde, Edwards, and Kinney counties each day.

Farther to the east, recent wetting rains, cooler temperatures,
and higher humidities will keep fire weather concerns out of the
forecast. Southerly winds enable a moisture recovery for Friday
through the weekend into early next week across all areas.
