...RED FLAG WARNING WILL EXPIRE AT 8 PM CDT THIS EVENING...

Relative humidity values will rise as a front moves through the
region. Showers will likely bring increased wind gusts between
40-50 mph, but this will occur simultaneously with relative
humidity values pushing past 50%. There may be a period over the
next hour or two of some locations hitting red flag criteria,
however widespread impacts have ceased.
