Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook  

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

1141 PM CDT Wed Oct 22 2025



Valid 231200Z - 241200Z



...Synopsis...

A dry post-frontal air mass will be further enhanced by dry westerly

downslope winds across the Appalachians/Piedmont for a period of

Elevated fire weather concerns today. Relative humidity around 30-35

percent will overlap with sustained winds 10-15 mph (gusting 30 mph

in a few locations). This will be the second day of pronounced

drying of fuels and leaf fall. Recent fuels guidance suggests ERCs

are nearing the 75th-80th percentile for dryness. Overall, ensemble

guidance keeps winds largely below Critical thresholds, though some

localized critical conditions are likely in more wind favored areas.

As such, an Elevated risk area was maintained with this outlook.

Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

1142 PM CDT Wed Oct 22 2025



Valid 241200Z - 251200Z



...NO CRITICAL AREAS...



...Synopsis...

A trough will advance into the Southern Plains on D2/Friday with

strong 850 mb moisture transport northward into portions of Texas

and Oklahoma. This will bring potential for widespread coverage of

rain and thunderstorms and much needed relief in fuel moisture,

limiting the fire risk across the region.



Further east, surface high pressure and height rises will build in

reducing wind speeds across the Appalachians/Piedmont. Though

afternoon relative humidity may drop to around 25-35 percent, the

lighter winds should reduce fire spread potential and need for

highlights.
