SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1139 AM CDT Wed Jul 31 2024 Valid 011200Z - 021200Z ...NO CRITICAL AREAS... The current forecast remains valid and on track. See the previous discussion for further detail. ..Halbert/Squitieri.. 07/31/2024 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0128 AM CDT Wed Jul 31 2024/ ...Synopsis... Along the western periphery of an expansive mid/upper-level ridge over the West, a belt of moderate midlevel south-southwesterly flow will overspread portions of northern CA and western OR. Here, boundary-layer mixing into the enhanced flow aloft will promote locally dry/breezy conditions during the afternoon -- especially within terrain-favored areas such as the Shasta Valley. Overall, the breezy surface winds appear too localized for an Elevated area, owing to a weak surface pressure gradient across the area. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

SPC Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1139 AM CDT Wed Jul 31 2024 Valid 311700Z - 011200Z The current forecast remains valid and on track. See the previous discussion for further detail. ..Halbert/Squitieri.. 07/31/2024 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0128 AM CDT Wed Jul 31 2024/ ...Synopsis... A midlevel trough will track eastward across the northern Plains, while a related cold front moves east-southeastward across the central Plains. Warm, dry, and breezy post-frontal conditions will develop across portions of the central High Plains during the afternoon -- yielding locally elevated fire-weather conditions. Farther west, a large-scale ridge will build across the western CONUS, favoring warm/dry conditions. However, generally weak surface winds (outside of terrain-favored areas) precludes fire-weather highlights at this time. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more
