This Outlook is for Northwest and West Central Arkansas as well as
much of Eastern Oklahoma.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.
SIGNIFICANT WINDS.
RISK...Limited.
AREA... Portions of northeast Oklahoma.
ONSET...Late morning, then diminishing in the afternoon.
FIRE WEATHER DANGER.
RISK...Elevated.
AREA...Eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas.
ONSET...Late morning.
DISCUSSION...
Winds will increase this morning and gust at times to 35 to 40 mph
before diminishing in the afternoon as a Pacific front approaches
the region. Wind speeds will continue this afternoon in the 25 to
35 mph range across much of eastern Oklahoma and northwest
Arkansas as relative humidity values fall into the 15 to 25
percent range. The combination of the dry, windy conditions and
above normal temperatures will result in an enhanced to near-
critical fire danger. Therefore, a Red Flag Warning is in effect
from 10 am this morning until 7 pm this evening for most of
eastern Oklahoma and all of northwest Arkansas.
Winds will decrease this evening and turn to the west and
northwest as the front passes through the region
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.
SATURDAY...Thunderstorm Potential...High Wind Potential.
SUNDAY...High Wind Potential.
MONDAY and TUESDAY...No Hazards.
WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY...Thunderstorm Potential.
EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Warm and dry conditions will continue on Saturday as winds return
out of the south and increase during the afternoon. Wildland fire
conditions will remain elevated across portions of northeast
Oklahoma. A warm front will move north across the area late
Saturday as a storm system passes well north of the region.
Enough moisture and instability will be present for scattered
showers and isolated storms to form, primarily across far
northeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. Above normal
temperatures and dry weather will remain in place behind the
weekend system until the middle of next week when a storm system
develops across the Desert Southwest to bring low rain chances
back into the forecast by Wednesday.
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
Emergency managers and first responders will need to be on alert
for new wildfire occurrences including rapidly spreading fires.
