SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0502 PM CDT Fri Jun 07 2024 Valid 091200Z - 151200Z A mid to upper-level ridge and zonal flow over the higher latitudes will persist through most of the extended period across the western and central CONUS respectively, with broad, cyclonic flow in place to the east and northeast. This pattern will maintain localized instances of elevated fire spread conditions across the increasingly receptive fuels found within the Southwest. Through the end of this weekend, a southern stream mid-level shortwave trough will move northeastward out of the Baja Peninsula region under the upper ridge, traversing far southern AZ and NM. The accompanying surface pressure gradient across this region may yield at least a short period of sustained westerly winds greater than 15-20 mph, where minimum RH will remain in the single digits. Low probabilities have been introduced for this area D3/Sunday. Further north across the Great Basin, a mid-level shortwave trough and moisture atop a deeply mixed lower troposphere may aid enough ascent for instances of dry thunderstorms. However, less receptive fuels across this region preclude the need for a Dry Thunder area at this time. By early next week, a mid to upper-level cyclone is expected to remain off the southern CA coast for a few days before moving onshore late in the week around D7/Thursday-D8/Friday. Increasing mid to low-level flow will eventually impact the Great Basin and Southwest as this occurs. Confidence in the timing of this feature, however, and details of receptive fuels overlapping meteorological fire spread conditions is too unclear at this time to introduce any low probabilities through the end of the week. ..Barnes.. 06/07/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

MD 1189 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHERN NV/UT INTO SOUTHERN ID
Mesoscale Discussion 1189 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0222 PM CDT Fri Jun 07 2024 Areas affected...Portions of northern NV/UT into southern ID Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 071922Z - 072145Z Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent SUMMARY...Isolated strong to severe wind gusts may occur this afternoon with high-based thunderstorms. Watch issuance is unlikely. DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have developed this afternoon across parts of northeast NV into western UT, as a shortwave trough continues to move eastward across CA/NV. Robust daytime heating has allowed surface temperatures to generally increase into the 80s. Amid steepening low/mid-level lapse rates, a well-mixed boundary layer should encourage some enhancement to convective downdraft winds as DCAPE increases into the 1000-1500 J/kg range. Isolated strong to severe wind gusts around 50-70 mph may occur with any of the more robust cores that can develop and be sustained this afternoon and early evening. Occasional marginally severe hail also appears possible, with around 30-35 kt of deep-layer shear supporting modest updraft organization. Limited instability and low-level moisture, with MLCAPE generally forecast to remain less than 1000 J/kg, should tend to temper the overall severe threat. Accordingly, watch issuance is not anticipated. ..Gleason/Guyer.. 06/07/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...SLC...PIH...BOI...LKN...
