Fire Weather Planning Forecast for the MidSouth
National Weather Service Memphis TN
330 AM CDT Wed Aug 13 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Most of the area has not received beneficial rainfall for an
extended period of time, which has led to elevated dry fuel
concerns. However, minimum relative humidity values remain above
50% alongside light winds, which keeps widespread fire danger
concerns low.
