SAN ANTONIO — Texans in the south-central part of the state should expect critical to near critical fire weather conditions Wednesday.

The KENS 5 Weather Team has issued Impact Weather Alert Days on Oct. 29 due to a Fire Weather Watch, which was upgraded to either a Red Flag Warning or Fire Danger Statement. A Weather Impact Alert Day was also issued for Oct. 30 because low temperatures are expected to be in the 40s Thursday morning.

A Fire Weather Watch is different from a Red Flag Warning: A Fire Weather Watch is issued when critical fire weather condition are possible and a Red Flag Warning is issued when critical fire weather conditions are happening or are about to happen. The Red Flag Warning will go into effect 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday.
