Fire Danger will be ramping up through this weekend, peaking on Monday.
A mostly dry cold front will pass the region on Sunday morning. In advance of the front on Saturday, wind will start to gradually increase, while near record high temperatures persist.
The front will be accompanied by spotty light rain, mainly over southeast Alabama and the Florida Panhandle, but rain amounts well below 1/4" will offer no lasting benefit. Behind the front, north winds will pick up on Sunday afternoon
Monday will be the most critical day. Very low humidity of 15-20 percent will overlap with wind gusts in the 20-30 mph range, along with seasonably warm high temperatures in the upper 70s and lower 80s.
Tuesday through Thursday will feature a warm and dry air mass with no rain.
