514 AM CDT Thu Oct 17 2024 /414 AM MDT Thu Oct 17 2024/

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of central Kansas,
south central Kansas, southwest Kansas, and west central Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Near-critical fire weather conditions will occur today as south
winds range 20 to 30 mph with gusts 40 to 50 mph at times. Despite
relative humidity not reaching critical levels of 15 percent or
lower, fire behavior will be aggressive and very difficult to
manage should an open flame get out of control.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday

Strong south winds will continue through the weekend ahead of a
deep upper level storm system, however higher Gulf of Mexico
moisture will move in, so fire weather conditions will not be as
high as today.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Storm spotters are not expected to be needed today and tonight.
