Fire Weather Watch Issued For Southeast Alabama

Dothan, Ala.— The National Weather Service is warning of elevated fire danger across the Wiregrass over the next couple of days as dry and windy conditions move in.

According to forecasters, a passing cold front is bringing very low humidity and gusty winds, creating conditions that could quickly lead to wildfires—especially with an ongoing rainfall deficit in the area.

NOAA reports Monday is expected to be the most concerning day, with relative humidity dropping between 15% and 20%. Officials say those conditions could allow fires to ignite quickly and spread rapidly.

A Fire Weather Watch remains in effect for Monday. Winds are expected to reach around 15 miles per hour, with higher gusts possible.

The watch area includes southeast Alabama, along with parts of the Florida Panhandle and southwest Georgia.

Emergency officials warn any fires that develop could spread fast and become difficult to control. Outdoor burning is not recommended during this time.
