615 FNUS53 KLBF 101852 FWFLBF Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western and North Central for Nebraska National Weather Service North Platte NE 152 PM CDT Sun Aug 10 2025 .DISCUSSION... The combination of below average highs in the upper 70s to low 80s, increased humidity, and light winds will keep fire concerns lower through Tuesday. Some increase in fire concerns is expected for middle and late week, as temperatures warm back into the 90s and humidity begins to decrease. This will combine with gusty south winds on Wednesday and could lead to elevated to near-critical fire concerns. The threat will persist into late week, and this will need to be monitored.
