Fire Weather Planning Forecast for West Texas/Southeast New Mexico
National Weather Service Midland/Odessa TX
245 AM CDT Fri Jun 6 2025
.DISCUSSION...
Fire weather concerns are low through the period. ERCs at or below
the 50th percentile are forecast for most of the area, and strong
winds are not expected to overlap with min RHs below 15%. As a
result of these factors and continued wetting rain chances (plus
good overnight recoveries), fire weather concerns are low.
