Fire Weather Planning Forecast For Extreme Southeast Arkansas,
Northeast Louisiana, and Central Mississippi
National Weather Service Jackson MS
407 AM CDT Fri Oct 18 2024

.DISCUSSION...A dry airmass will remain over the area through
the weekend. This dry airmass coupled with dry soil conditions,
will result in a limited fire danger threat across the area today,
and could be extended into this weekend. Rain chances remain nil
over the weekend into the middle of next week. However,
conditions will steadily warm each day, with more of an increase
in moisture expected during the work week. Fog development is not
expected this morning, nor Saturday morning.
