Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Kansas
National Weather Service Wichita KS
329 PM CDT Sun Mar 8 2026
.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 230 PM CDT Sun Mar 8 2026
Fire weather concerns have lessened for this afternoon as
lingering ground moisture should limit fire danger. For Monday,
drier conditions, well above normal temperatures, and breezy
conditions will lead to areas of very high fire danger across
southeast Kansas. Rain on Tuesday/Tuesday night will hinder any
fire concerns through Wednesday. Then on Thursday, above normal
temperatures, lower RH values, and strong southwesterly winds
will lead to worsening fire weather conditions. Much of the
area could see very high fire danger with locations in central
Kansas potentially reaching extreme fire danger during the
afternoon hours.
