SRNL Weather Center Fire Forecast (AM)
Date:
March 12, 2026
Forecast Period:
8:00 AM Today (March 12, 2026) through 8:00 AM Tomorrow (March 13, 2026)
Discussion:
A cold front moving through the area today will bring showers and thunderstorms to the region this morning. With this line of storms there is a thread for severe weather to impact our area today (SPC calls for Marginal or 1 out of 5 risk). Following this front, expect a cool down and clearing. A very pleasant weekend with sunny skies and temperatures in the 70s is in store, then another front on late Sunday/Monday should maintain temperatures on the cooler side for the early portion of next week.
Special Conditions:
A lake wind advisory is in effect for the CSRA as the region is expected to experience winds of 10-20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph. The region is also under a marginal risk of severe weather, as strong thunderstorms can move into our area this morning.
