SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0449 PM CDT Sat Jun 15 2024 Valid 171200Z - 231200Z A longwave mid-level trough across the western CONUS will be the primary driver for fire weather concerns for most of the upcoming week. An embedded shortwave trough is expected to traverse the northern Rockies on Day 3 (Monday), and the associated surface response will induce dry, breezy conditions across the southwestern CONUS. With receptive fuels in the area, a 70% Critical area has been maintained across parts of Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and far southwest Colorado. Surrounding this, a 40% Critical area is maintained. The eastern edge of this area has received some rain in the last 24 hours, so this may mitigate the fire threat, depending on how quickly drying of fuels can occur. In addition, a secondary jet max is expected to translate to the California coast, which is expected to result in some dry, breezy conditions in the California Central Valley. On Day 4 (Tuesday), the primary shortwave trough lifts to the northeast, weakening the flow over the southwestern CONUS. Some dry, breezy conditions with receptive fuels may occur over south-central New Mexico. For Day 5 (Wednesday) and beyond, some fire risk may occur across portions of the southwest CONUS, however confidence is too low to highlight specific areas at this time. ..Supinie.. 06/15/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
