Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Southwest Arkansas...

National Weather Service Shreveport LA
239 PM CDT Sat Apr 19 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Precipitation chances will begin to maximize in the next 24-72
hours and into the rest of next week as a more active weather
pattern takes shape over Four State fire districts. Minimum RH
values will remain mostly over 50 percent as a result with
southerly winds being predominant as a meandering frontal boundary
spends more time to our north than our south this week. /16/
