SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0238 PM CDT Mon May 05 2025
Valid 061200Z - 071200Z
...NO CRITICAL AREAS...
Locally elevated fire weather conditions, particularly along leeward
terrain features across far western Texas, are still expected
Tuesday afternoon. However, widespread fire weather threat should be
limited as surface pressure gradients weaken, flow aloft relaxes,
and a mid-level trough translates eastward into the Southern Plains.
See previous discussion below for more information.
..Williams.. 05/05/2025
.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0200 AM CDT Mon May 05 2025/
...Synopsis...
Fire weather potential appears limited for Tuesday across the
country. Residual dry/windy conditions are possible across parts of
southwest TX and far southern NM as a westerly downslope flow regime
becomes established with the eastward departure of a deepening
surface low. Elevated fire weather conditions will be possible,
especially on the leeward side of more prominent terrain features
where downslope winds and drying may be enhanced. While most
solutions agree on the general flow regime, disparity in the wind
speed forecast among deterministic models and ensemble guidance
limits confidence in the potential for a sustained fire weather
threat.
