Grass Fire Danger Statement
National Weather Service Fort Worth TX
1227 AM CST Sat Jan 17 2026

...ELEVATED FIRE THREAT FOR ALL OF NORTH AND CENTRAL TEXAS
TODAY...

Very dry air will remain in place today with minimum RH values
ranging from 10-20%. In addition, breezy north winds of 10-15 mph
will prevail through most of the daytime, with occasional gusts of
20-25 mph. When combined with dry and dormant vegetation, this
will elevate the fire weather threat across all of North and
Central Texas. Cool temperatures in the 40s and lower 50s will
prevent the fire threat from reaching critical levels.

Extreme care is urged during all outside activities where there
is a potential for grass fires to get started. Avoid outside
burning and welding. Do not toss lit cigarette butts outside.
Report wildfires to the nearest fire department or law
enforcement office quickly.
