Fire Weather Planning Forecast For Extreme Southeast Arkansas,
Northeast Louisiana, and Central Mississippi
National Weather Service Jackson MS
521 AM CDT Fri Oct 10 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Dry weather will prevail over the next several days in the wake
of a weak cold front. Afternoon minimum relative humidity values
will generally hover between 35-45% into Sunday. Transport winds
will have a northeasterly component during this time, but winds
won`t be as breezy as they were on Thursday. However, with the
continued lack of rain and no appreciable rain chances in the near
future, fire danger will need to be monitored closely heading
into next week. No significant concern for fog exists this
morning, nor Saturday morning.
