602 FNUS53 KILX 110654 FWFILX Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Southeast Illinois National Weather Service Lincoln IL 154 AM CDT Sat May 11 2024 .DISCUSSION... A cold front will depart to the east early this morning, allowing high pressure to build into the region. That will favor deep mixing and gusty northwest winds this afternoon leading to excellent vent rates. Winds will back to the southwest on Sunday and not be as strong. However, mixing heights will be upwards of 6 to 7 thousand feet during the afternoon favoring another day of good to very good vent rates. The next chances for precipitation will arrive Monday morning, with upwards of an inch of rain in some areas Monday and Monday night.
