SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0145 AM CDT Tue Aug 27 2024 Valid 281200Z - 291200Z ...NO CRITICAL AREAS... ...Synopsis... A pronounced mid-level trough will traverse the Northern Rockies and eject into the northern High Plains tomorrow (Wednesday), supporting robust surface lee troughing across the northern Plains states. Strong isallobaric flow is thus expected over portions of the northern and central Rockies, particularly eastern Montana, as well as central into eastern Wyoming. In both areas, sustained west-southwesterly surface winds exceeding 20 mph amid 15-25 percent RH are expected during the afternoon. Such conditions typically necessitate at least Elevated to perhaps Critical highlights. However, fuel receptiveness in these regions is marginal at best, especially considering rainfall over the past week. As such, fire weather highlights have been withheld this outlook. ..Squitieri.. 08/27/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more

SPC Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0144 AM CDT Tue Aug 27 2024 Valid 271200Z - 281200Z ...Synopsis... A mid-level trough will amplify while traversing the northwestern U.S. today, encouraging strong surface lee troughing over the northern Rockies. In turn, strong and dry downslope flow is anticipated to the lee of the Cascades, where surface meteorological conditions will be conducive to wildfire spread. By afternoon, 15-20 mph sustained westerly surface winds will coincide with 15-25 percent RH for at least a few hours in the Columbia Basin in eastern Washington. Fuels experiencing these dry and windy meteorological conditions will be modestly receptive to wildfire spread, warranting Elevated highlights. ..Squitieri.. 08/27/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
