SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0140 PM CST Mon Jan 01 2024 Valid 021200Z - 031200Z ...NO CRITICAL AREAS... The previous D2 Fire Weather Outlook remains on track with no updates needed. See previous discussion below. ..Thornton.. 01/01/2024 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0121 AM CST Mon Jan 01 2024/ ...Synopsis... Very low fire weather potential is expected for Tuesday. Despite the passage of a progressive shortwave trough across the southern Rockies within the next 24-48 hours, the ongoing cold frontal surge towards the northwestern Gulf of Mexico and attendant surface high over the Plains will mute any surface mass response over the southern High Plains. Because of this, seasonably cool conditions with benign winds are anticipated across southeastern NM into west TX where fuels have been drying in recent days. Additionally, extensive cloud cover associated with the upper low should limit diurnal heating and afternoon RH reductions, resulting in low fire concerns. ...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 1120 AM CST Mon Jan 01 2024 Valid 021200Z - 031200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Isolated to scattered non-severe thunderstorms are expected from Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday night across parts of Texas and southwestern Louisiana. A few lightning strikes may occur along the coast of northern California. ...DISCUSSION... An upper-level trough will move from the Desert Southwest to west Texas on Tuesday. Ahead of the system, a moist airmass will remain over the western Gulf of Mexico extending westward to the lower Texas coast. Elevated thunderstorms may develop across parts of central or south-central Texas Tuesday afternoon, near a low-level jet and within a zone of strong large-scale ascent associated with the approaching trough. The potential for thunderstorm development will shift eastward Tuesday evening into Tuesday night across the middle Texas Coast, southeast Texas and southwest Louisiana. The higher surface dewpoints and stronger instability, are expected to remain offshore. Therefore, no severe threat is expected. Elsewhere, a few lightning strikes, not associated with a severe threat, may occur along the coast of northern California as an upper-level trough approaches on Tuesday. ..Broyles.. 01/01/2024 Read more

Fire weather concerns will be minimal for today. Early-morning surface observations show a cold front pushing southward across the southern Plains and lower MS River Valley. This front is expected to reach the Gulf Coast by mid to late morning. In its wake, cooler temperatures and generally benign winds are anticipated as surface high pressure builds over the Plains/mid-MS River Valley. These cool/calm conditions will limit the potential for fire weather concerns, including over the southern High Plains were fuel drying has been ongoing in recent days. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
