Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western and Central North Dakota
National Weather Service Bismarck ND
310 PM CDT Tue Oct 6 2020

...RED FLAG WARNING FOR CENTRAL AND MUCH OF WESTERN NORTH DAKOTA 
INCLUDING THE JAMES RIVER VALLEY THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY 
EVENING...

.DISCUSSION...

Cloud cover across northern and eastern North Dakota has resulted in 
lighter winds and higher relative humidity this afternoon than 
originally expected. It is becoming increasingly unlikely that wind 
and humidity will exceed warning criteria for several hours. Will
wait until peak heating arrives late in the afternoon to make any
changes to the ongoing warning. But the overall message is that 
this will be a lower end event than previously thought.

Meanwhile, near critical fire weather conditions are being observed 
in southwest North Dakota, where sunshine is plentiful. It still 
does not appear that thresholds for wind and humidity will be met 
for long enough of a duration to warrant an expansion of the Red 
Flag Warning. 

On Wednesday, relative humidity may fall into the 20 to 25 percent 
range across western North Dakota, but winds are expected to remain 
under 15 mph. It will be breezier farther to the east, but with 
higher humidity values. 

A dry and warm pattern with breezy conditions at times looks to 
continue into the weekend.
