Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Kansas
National Weather Service Wichita KS
638 PM CDT Sat Sep 12 2026
.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 343 AM CDT Sat Sep 12 2026
Unseasonably hot temperatures and gusty southerly winds could
support very high fire danger west of I-135 Monday afternoon.
Southerly winds will be sustained at around 25-30 mph with gusts
around 40-45 mph. That being said, antecedent rainfall and
dewpoints in the low 60s should mitigate fire weather concerns
somewhat.
