3:30 p.m. Update

From Chief Meteorologist Craig Carnesi...

The National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning until 5:00 p.m. for the following counties... (Text in red, all caps, from the National Weather Service)

FISHER-NOLAN-STERLING-COKE-RUNNELS-HASKELL-THROCKMORTON-JONES-TAYLOR-

A RED FLAG WARNING MEANS THAT CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONSARE EITHER OCCURRING NOW...OR WILL SHORTLY. A COMBINATION OF STRONG WINDS...LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY...AND WARM TEMPERATURES WILL CREATE EXPLOSIVE FIRE GROWTH POTENTIAL.

The breezy winds we are experiencing right now will die off after sunset. With that, the fire danger will drop off as well.

Temperatures will fall as well, although I am not expecting a freeze area wide.

I'll have more on our forecast a little bit later.
