SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0502 PM CDT Sat Jul 13 2024 Valid 151200Z - 211200Z The pattern in the extended D3/Mon-D8/Sat will feature a trough moving across the northern Rockies into the northern Plains before deepening into the Great Lakes and eastern US. As this occurs, strengthening lee troughing will increase surface winds as well as with downslope warming and drying across the central High Plains. Southwesterly breezes and relative humidity reductions to around 20 percent will overlap across portions of southwestern and central Kansas D3/Mon. Fuels in this region are currently too moist to support risk of fire spread, but fine fuels may experience some drying. An approaching front will sag southward across southern Kansas in Oklahoma by D4/Tue with chances for further wetting precipitation extending into the southern Plains through D5/Wed-D8/Saturday. Across the West Coast, high amplitude ridging will return with drying conditions and very warm temperatures returning. Monsoonal moisture will largely be scoured out of the Great Basin, residing across southern Arizona where thunderstorm chances will continue. Isolated dry thunderstorms may be possible across portions of northern Arizona/southern Utah, along the northern periphery of the better monsoonal moisture. Some portions of this region will receive wetting rainfall in the short term D2/Sun-D3/Mon leading to uncertainty in the status of fuels. Moisture will linger across portions of northern California into Washington D3/Mon-D4/Tue, with potential for a lingering high-based shower or two. A few isolated dry thunderstorms may be possible west of the Cascades in Washington D4/Tue-D5/Wed as southerly flow returns moisture across the Columbia Basin. Overall, coverage and confidence of these threats remain too low to include any isolated dry thunderstorm areas at this time. ..Thornton.. 07/13/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
