SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0413 PM CDT Wed Mar 19 2025 Valid 211200Z - 271200Z Early in the extended period D3-5 (Friday-Sunday), breezy and dry conditions will be possible across the central and southern Plains. However, a much cooler air mass along with recent rain and snowfall across portions of the central Plains will help keep fire weather concerns low and mostly across the southern high Plains. After this period, an upper level high is expected to build in across the central US, with lighter winds but continued dry conditions across the southern Plains. ...D3 - Friday through D4 - Saturday, Southern High Plains... A surface low will develop across the central Plains on D3 - Friday, with Elevated to locally Critical fire weather conditions possible across eastern New Mexico into the Texas Panhandle. The main upper-level trough has continued to show a more progressive track, with much cooler air filtering in across portions of eastern Colorado and southwestern Kansas behind the passing cold front. Some portion of this region has also seen recent rain and snowfall over the last 24-48 hours. This has led to removal of the 70 percent probabilities and shrinking of 40 percent probabilities. A secondary wave will move across the central Plains on D4 - Saturday with another surface low developing across eastern Colorado into the Oklahoma/Texas Panhandle. 850 mb flow will strengthen with lee troughing, however, the main area of strongest flow aloft will stay north of the driest fuels. Some overlap of windy/dry conditions will be possible across the Oklahoma Panhandle southward into the Texas Panhandle and eastern New Mexico. A 40 percent area was maintained with this outlook. ..Thornton.. 03/19/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0413 PM CDT Wed Mar 19 2025 Valid 211200Z - 271200Z Early in the extended period D3-5 (Friday-Sunday), breezy and dry conditions will be possible across the central and southern Plains. However, a much cooler air mass along with recent rain and snowfall across portions of the central Plains will help keep fire weather concerns low and mostly across the southern high Plains. After this period, an upper level high is expected to build in across the central US, with lighter winds but continued dry conditions across the southern Plains. ...D3 - Friday through D4 - Saturday, Southern High Plains... A surface low will develop across the central Plains on D3 - Friday, with Elevated to locally Critical fire weather conditions possible across eastern New Mexico into the Texas Panhandle. The main upper-level trough has continued to show a more progressive track, with much cooler air filtering in across portions of eastern Colorado and southwestern Kansas behind the passing cold front. Some portion of this region has also seen recent rain and snowfall over the last 24-48 hours. This has led to removal of the 70 percent probabilities and shrinking of 40 percent probabilities. A secondary wave will move across the central Plains on D4 - Saturday with another surface low developing across eastern Colorado into the Oklahoma/Texas Panhandle. 850 mb flow will strengthen with lee troughing, however, the main area of strongest flow aloft will stay north of the driest fuels. Some overlap of windy/dry conditions will be possible across the Oklahoma Panhandle southward into the Texas Panhandle and eastern New Mexico. A 40 percent area was maintained with this outlook. ..Thornton.. 03/19/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more
