To be sure is more positive. Or certain. "I'm sure it will be OK if you want to stop over tomorrow."
Fairly sure is a bit less certain. You think so but you are not completely positive something will occur.
"I'm fairly sure it will be nice weather tomorrow for our picnic but there is a slight chance of rain they say."
