SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0122 PM CST Fri Dec 29 2023 Valid 301200Z - 311200Z ...NO CRITICAL AREAS... No changes are needed to the D2 Fire Weather Outlook. See previous discussion below for more information. ..Thornton.. 12/29/2023 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0102 AM CST Fri Dec 29 2023/ ...Synopsis... Fire weather concerns are expected to remain limited for Saturday across the country. Dry conditions will persist across the Southwest into the southern High Plains with afternoon RH minimums expected to fall into the low teens from NM into western TX. Mid-level flow will gradually become more zonal over the southern Rockies through the day, and may result in pockets of elevated fire weather conditions across central to eastern NM. However, winds are expected to remain sufficiently weak to confine fire weather conditions to the immediate lee of terrain features, and unreceptive fuels should further modulate the fire weather threat. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

SPC 1730Z Day 2 Outlook
Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1044 AM CST Fri Dec 29 2023 Valid 301200Z - 311200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not expected on Saturday. ...Synopsis... A negatively tilted mid/upper-level trough will move across parts of CA during the day on Saturday, before advancing toward the Four Corners region by early Sunday morning. A deep upper-level trough will persist over the central/eastern CONUS, as a reinforcing shortwave trough moves southeastward toward the upper Great Lakes region. Generally dry and stable conditions will preclude thunderstorm development across most of the CONUS. Weak convection will be possible across parts of CA during the morning/afternoon in association with the shortwave trough. Isolated lightning flashes cannot be ruled out with this convection, though very weak buoyancy and relatively warm equilibrium-level temperatures will limit thunderstorm coverage and intensity. Elsewhere, thunderstorms are not expected on Saturday. ..Dean.. 12/29/2023 Read more

Fire weather concerns will remain limited for today. Per recent surface observations, cool continental air continues to overspread the Plains into the Midwest and Mississippi River Valley behind an occluded surface low. Breezy northwest winds may coincide with diurnal RH reductions below 25% across parts of the southern High Plains this afternoon. However, fuels are currently not receptive due to recent precipitation and cool conditions. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more

SPC 1630Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1001 AM CST Fri Dec 29 2023 Valid 291630Z - 301200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are not expected through Saturday morning. ...Northern/central CA coast through Saturday morning... No changes to previous outlook. In association with a midlevel shortwave trough moving eastward, a front and coincident rain band will spread inland over the central/northern CA coast late today into tonight. Gradual steepening of low-midlevel lapse rates as the mid levels cool will contribute to weak buoyancy rooted near the surface within and west of the frontal band. Isolated low-topped thunderstorms will be possible, primarily near the coast tonight through Saturday morning. ..Thompson/Squitieri.. 12/29/2023 Read more
