Late Summer Wildfire Threat Continues

Today's Records and Climate Data

The ArkLaTex is expected to experience another round of extreme heat as we move into early September.

Slightly cooler temperatures in the low to mid 70s expected tonight with a few evening showers possible.

Despite some recent rainfall, flash drought conditions continue across the entire Four State Region. As a result, much of the region is under a Burn Ban at this time. The wildfire threat will continue with no significant rainfall expected through the end of August.

Here are today's climate records for selected sites across the Four State region.
