Fire Weather Planning Forecast for SW VA...UPDATED
National Weather Service Blacksburg VA
656 PM EST Sun Nov 16 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Update: Dewpoints have been observed around 5 degrees lower than
originally forecast. Therefore, dewpoints were lowered for tonight
and Monday morning. Winds have also been gusting higher than 
forecast in the Piedmont, so winds were also increased slightly, 
though they do briefly reduce overnight in some areas. Tomorrow 
will be another fire danger day, as winds remain strong along with 
low dewpoints. 

The combination of continued gusty winds in the 20-30+ mph range,
low RH values dropping into the teens and 20 percent range, 
along with dry fuels on the ground will result in a critical 
fire weather day again on Monday. Fortunately, winds do look to 
diminish some on Monday; however, RH values will likely be much 
lower areawide, with more widespread upper teens RH values 
possible in the Piedmont. This continued fire weather concerns 
will likely lead to a fire weather SPS for much of the area on 
Monday. Burning will continue to be discouraged for much of the
area.
