1159 PM CDT Fri Sep 18 2026
RED FLAG...None.
.DISCUSSION... South to southwest winds will increase on Saturday
and continued hot weather along with lower humidity values will
increase fire weather concerns across much of eastern Oklahoma
and western Arkansas. The stronger winds will occur across
northeast Oklahoma on Saturday and will lead to higher grassland
fire spread rates. Be mindful of ongoing burn bans across the
region. A cold front will move into the forecast area Sunday and
move east of the region by early Monday. Rain chances will
increase along with cooler temperatures for early next week.
