SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0452 PM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025 Valid 171200Z - 231200Z ...Day 3-4/Thursday-Friday... An upper-level low will usher in deeper monsoon moisture into the Desert Southwest and Greater Four Corners region through the end of the week aiding in promoting heavier rainfall with primarily diurnally driven thunderstorms over higher terrain. Dry thunderstorm threat will remain on the fringes of the deeper monsoon moisture across the eastern Great Basin, northern UT and Western Slope on Day 3/Thursday, moving even further north into the central ID/southwest MT mountains on Day 4/Friday. Increasing westerly flow associated with an approaching mid-level short wave will usher in stronger onshore winds into the Pacific Northwest on Day 4/Friday, increasing fire weather concerns east of the Cascades in WA/OR. ...Day 5-6/Saturday-Sunday... Breezy and dry conditions expand into the Northwestern U.S. as the mid-level trough moves into the region. 40 percent probabilities of critical fire weather conditions were added to the Columbia Basin and Snake River Plain where fuels are receptive to fire spread. The aforementioned trough and enhanced deep layer westerly flow will aid in the evacuation of monsoon moisture from the Western U.S., pushing thunderstorm development primarily along and east of the Continental Divide, south of the Mogollon Rim by Day 6/Sunday. ...Day 7-8/Monday-Tuesday... Uncertainty increases early next week regarding strength of troughing across the Pacific Northwest, precluding introduction of critical probabilities at this time. However, ensemble guidance does indicate a general troughing pattern holding on into early next week, which typically would bring dry, southwest flow and fire weather concerns to the Great Basin and portions of the Intermountain West. ..Williams.. 07/15/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
