FNUS54 KLIX 220327 FWFLIX Fire Weather Planning Forecast for S MS and SE LA National Weather Service New Orleans LA 1027 PM CDT Fri Aug 21 2026 .DISCUSSION... As high pressure dominates the region into next week, we will see temperatures above average with daytime highs well into the 90s and overnight lows in the upper 70s. Drought conditions have depleted fuel moisture and rain will once again be very difficult to come by for many areas outside a stray shower or thunderstorm during peak heating hours. Lowest daily RH values will remain in the mid 40 to 60% range through the week.
