Fire Weather Planning Forecast

.DISCUSSION...

Fire danger remains elevated over the Ozark Foothills this
afternoon with RH values between 20-25%. Moisture will be higher
on Tuesday with good dispersion as transport winds will be over
20 kts with southwest flow. Chance of a wetting rain then arrives
late Tuesday into Tuesday night as a weak cold front moves
through. The greatest probabilities are across portions of
southern Illinois and southwest Indiana. Light transport winds on
Wednesday will lead to fair dispersion despite higher mixing
heights. Dry conditions are expected.
