Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southwest Arkansas...
Northwest Louisiana...East Texas...and Extreme Southeast Oklahoma
National Weather Service Shreveport LA
417 AM CDT Tue Apr 23 2024

.DISCUSSION...

With high pressure now well east of the region and an area of low
pressure shifting south into West Texas, 20ft south winds will be
increasing throughout today to near 10-15 mph this afternoon with
higher gusts upwards of 20-25 mph across East Texas and Southeast
Oklahoma. Very warm temperatures are expected with afternoon highs
in the mid to upper 70s. With increasing Gulf moisture, dewpoints
will climb back into the 50s later today with minimum RH values
generally ranging between 35-50 percent this afternoon and higher
through the rest of this week. Afternoon mixing heights will range
between 4000-4500 feet today with very good mixing and dispersion.
By later this evening and overnight, a weak cold front will shift
south along the Red River Valley and may result in some isolated
showers and thunderstorms over our northern fire districts across
Southeast Oklahoma and adjacent parts of extreme Northeast Texas
and Southwest Arkansas.
