SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0203 PM CDT Tue Jun 18 2024 Valid 191200Z - 201200Z ...Update... An Elevated area has been added to western/northwestern NM Wednesday to account for breezy sustained southerly surface winds. An increasing pressure gradient within a deepening surface trough over western NM will likely result in speeds exceeding 20 mph for 1-3 hours across this region. These winds will coincide with RH in the low teens to single digits, where at least localized ERC percentiles are reaching critical thresholds. Otherwise, please see the previous discussion below for details pertaining to isolated dry thunderstorms, and easterly flow across Florida. ..Barnes.. 06/18/2024 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0153 AM CDT Tue Jun 18 2024/ ...Synopsis... Moisture along the southwestern periphery of the mid-level ridge will push westward across New Mexico Wednesday. Isolated to widely scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected, with some wetting rains occurring across the eastern half of New Mexico where deeper moisture is expected. Along the edge of this deeper moisture, isolated dry thunderstorms will be possible over portions of west-central and southern New Mexico into far southeastern Arizona during the afternoon and evening. Across northern Florida, easterly surface winds around 15 mph should develop on Wednesday, overlapping relative humidity less than 35-40 percent. This overlap appears very short lived and mainly across far northern Florida and the Panhandle, where less receptive fuels persist. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

MD 1318 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR PORTIONS OF FAR NORTHEASTERN KENTUCKY...FAR WESTERN WEST VIRGINIA...EASTERN OHIO...WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA...FAR SOUTHWESTERN NEW YORK
Mesoscale Discussion 1318 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1235 PM CDT Tue Jun 18 2024 Areas affected...portions of far northeastern Kentucky...far western West Virginia...eastern Ohio...western Pennsylvania...far southwestern New York Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 181735Z - 181900Z Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent SUMMARY...The threat for damaging gusts and isolated instances of hail will continue to gradually increase through the afternoon. The overall severe threat should be more sparse, and a WW issuance is not currently expected. DISCUSSION...A moist low-level airmass continues to advect northward and pivot around a deep-layer anticyclone currently positioned over the Mid Atlantic region. Robust heating of this moist airmass is resulting in convective temperatures (i.e. 88-90 F) being reached over many locales, with thunderstorm initiation already underway. Overspreading this airmass are 6+ C/km mid-level lapse rates, which are supporting narrow, but tall CAPE profiles, with 2000+ J/kg MLCAPE already becoming widespread. The current synoptic regime around the anticyclone is fostering weak vertical shear/flow profiles, so pulse-cellular is the expected mode of convection, though multicells are also possible. Wet downbursts with the stronger storms should support strong wind gusts, some of which may cause damage. An instance or two of hail are also possible. However, severe (50+ kt) winds are not expected to be particularly widespread, so a WW appears unlikely at this time. ..Squitieri/Gleason.. 06/18/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
