Seasonably mild high temperatures in the 70s and mostly dry conditions will dominate the latter half of the week. Increasing south winds today, especially west of U.S. Highway 81, where gusts of 30 to 40 MPH will lead to areas of elevated fire danger this afternoon. Please use caution with equipment that could cause a spark if working in dry crops or grasses. Breezy conditions linger into Thursday, and after a brief lull Friday will return on Saturday. Looking ahead into next week, a slight pattern change could bring rain chances to parts of the region with the outlook for October 13th through 17th favoring warmer and wetter than normal conditions.
