FORECAST

SATURDAY’S FIRE CONCERNS

A dry, desert airmass will punch into the area on Saturday. This will come in tandem with gusty west winds, creating another day of fire concerns. Any humidity and cloud cover Saturday morning will quickly be erased by the afternoon. Gusts of up to 35 mph are possible, with the highest fire danger being along and west of I-35. Just like earlier this week, should a fire develop, it would quickly spread.

GUSTY, CHILLY SUNDAY MORNING

Winds will be slow to subside and, in fact, Sunday will likely be a gusty day, too. A cold front will slide through late Saturday night, meaning that Sunday morning’s temperatures will dip into the low-40s. Combine that with gusty winds and wind chill values in the 30s are expected early Sunday. Highs on Sunday afternoon will only reach the upper-60s.

Temperatures will be warm next week, while gusty winds are forecast to return on Wednesday and Thursday. This likely means more fire concerns lie ahead.
