407 AM CDT Thu Oct 17 2024

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 11 AM THIS MORNING TO 8 PM CDT
THIS EVENING...

.DISCUSSION...

Red Flag Warning remains in place for the entire area today.
South winds will increase quickly this morning as mixing deepens,
peaking mid-day at 20-30 mph sustained. Gusts will be as high as
30-40 mph from late morning through early evening, highest across
north-central Kansas. With moisture advection still limited by
surface high pressure to our southeast, dewpoints stay in the 20s
and low 30s, resulting in minimum RH around 19 to 25 percent. As
fuels continue to become more receptive after recent dry
conditions and yesterday`s freeze, the gusty winds and low
humidity will make for extreme fire weather. Any fires that do
develop will have the potential to spread rapidly. After sunset
winds weaken to around 10-15 mph and RH gradually improves to
above 35 percent, resulting in less favorable fire spread
conditions.

Compared to today, RH on Friday will be slightly higher (in the 25-
30 percent range) and wind speeds slightly lower (15-25 mph with
gusts 25-35 mph). This looks to keep conditions slightly below red
flag criteria. However, very high fire danger will still be present,
so continue to use caution with anything that could spark a fire. By
the weekend, winds will be notably weaker at 5-15 mph, resulting in
lower fire weather concerns. Most places stay dry through Sunday,
with only a very low chance for a light shower or two across far
north-central KS. Better chances for scattered showers area-wide
on Monday.
