...ELEVATED TO CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER RISK SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY AFTERNOON...
.A strong cold front arriving Sunday night brings strong
northerly winds and crashing relative humidity values, leading to
elevated to critical fire weather conditions across all of Deep
South Texas, minus the barrier islands, through Monday afternoon.
Fire weather concerns are further heightened by the fact that
cured fuels remain abundant across our region, which is in an
ongoing D2 to D4 (Severe to Exceptional) Drought.
* WINDS...Northerly at 20 to 30 mph, gusting as high as 35 to 45
mph.
* RELATIVE HUMIDITY...As low as 10-40 percent.
* IMPACTS...Any fire that develops will catch and spread
quickly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.
A Fire Weather Watch means that critical fire weather conditions
are forecast to occur. Listen for later forecasts and possible
Red Flag Warnings.
