SPC Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1101 AM CDT Tue Sep 02 2025 Valid 021700Z - 031200Z The previous forecast largely remains on track with only minor adjustments made to account for recent convective trends. Through 15 UTC this morning, radar rainfall estimates and lightning data suggest a mix of wet and dry thunderstorms is ongoing across the Central Valley. Additional thunderstorm development remains likely through the evening hours across northern CA, northwest NV, and central OR. While 12 UTC guidance has captured the ongoing activity well, most solutions initialized with a notable warm/dry bias across northern CA and adjacent portions of OR/NV, suggesting that moisture quality may be slightly better than depicted by morning solutions. Additionally, mid/high-level cloud cover associated with the ongoing showers/thunderstorms will continue to spread north and may modulate diurnal heating/mixing to some degree over parts of northern CA/southern OR. These factors, coupled with forecast PWAT values between 0.6 to 0.8 inches, hint that a mix of dry/wet thunderstorms is probable for northern CA/southern OR with an increasing chance for dry lightning with north and eastward extent if/where storms can develop ahead of the approaching cloud cover. ..Moore.. 09/02/2025 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0155 AM CDT Tue Sep 02 2025/ ...Synopsis... A weak upper-level low will move northward across northern California into the Pacific Northwest today through D2/Wednesday, with increases in moisture and forcing leading to thunderstorm development. Precipitable water values will approach 0.60-0.90", decreasing with eastward extent across eastern Oregon/western Nevada. Faster storm motions around 15-20 kts will likely lead to a mix of wet/dry thunderstorms. New starts will be possible where little to no precipitation occurs, with ERCs around the 80th-90th percentile across portions of these regions.

Tropical Storm Lorena Forecast Discussion Number 3

3 weeks 6 days ago
Issued at 800 AM MST Tue Sep 02 2025 000 WTPZ42 KNHC 021500 TCDEP2 Tropical Storm Lorena Discussion Number 3 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP122025 Issued by the NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 800 AM MST Tue Sep 02 2025 GOES-East imagery depicts a steadily improving convective structure, where earlier the presentation was more elongated, but more recently is taking on a banded structure with bursting overshooting tops near the center, suggesting better overall organization of the small core. Recent Dvorak satellite estimates from TAFB/SAB are at 2.5 and 3.5, respectively, indicative of the intensification. As such, initial intensity is set at 40 kt, slightly favoring the TAFB estimate though satellite trends continue to improve. Thus, Tropical Depression Twelve-E has been upgraded to Tropical Storm Lorena. The cyclone is now moving northwestward at 12 kt along the southwestern periphery of a mid-level ridge. The ridge should steer the storm generally northwestward for the next couple of days. However, the strength and therefore, depth of the cyclone will have a sizable impact on its expected track and potential recurvature towards Baja California. Model solutions that are stronger bring the cyclone northward and eastward relative to the overall guidance suite closer to Baja California earlier. Thus interests along Baja California Sur should monitor updates to the track closely. Given overall trends, a slightly faster, northward adjustment to the track was made. The latest track forecast shows landfall in central Baja at 96 hours, but there remains significant spread in the track guidance, with the latest GFS forecast faster and to the east, while the most recent ECMWF forecast is a significant leftward outlier, not ever reaching the Mexican coastline. Given the spread, stay tuned to updates in subsequent forecast packages. Very warm waters and ample deep layer moisture will allow for a steady intensification over the next few days, with increasing potential for Lorena to reach hurricane status in the next next 24 to 48 hours. Lorena is expected to cross the 26 degree C isotherm in 2-3 days. That factor, in combination with increasing southwesterly vertical shear should result in weakening after that time until landfall across the Baja California Peninsula. The latest NHC intensity forecast is higher than the previous cycle, but remains a little under the HCCA consensus aid. Interests in southwestern Mexico and Baja California Sur should monitor the progress of this system. A Tropical Storm Watch could be required for portions of Baja California later today or Wednesday. Key Messages: 1. Heavy rainfall associated with Tropical Storm Lorena will begin to affect Baja California Sur on Wednesday, and southwestern Sonora by Thursday. This will increase the risk of life-threatening flash floods and mudslides, especially in areas of higher terrain. 2. Lorena is forecast to approach the Baja California peninsula later this week. Although it is too soon to specify the exact location and magnitude of wind impacts, residents should closely monitor the latest forecast updates and ensure that they have their preparedness plan in place. Watches could be required for a portion of the Baja California peninsula later today or on Wednesday.

Hurricane Kiko Forecast Discussion Number 10

3 weeks 6 days ago
Issued at 500 AM HST Tue Sep 02 2025 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 021439 TCDEP1 Hurricane Kiko Discussion Number 10 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP112025 500 AM HST Tue Sep 02 2025 Over the past 6 hours, Kiko's eye has become apparent on nighttime visible imagery, and at times it has also showed up in the infrared imagery. The small hurricane is clearly intensifying. The latest subjective Dvorak estimates from TAFB and SAB range from 77-90 kt, while the UW-CIMSS objective estimates have been running in the 60-74 kt range. The initial intensity estimate of 75 kt represents an average of these estimates. Kiko continues moving slowly westward, or 270 degrees at 5 kt. The main steering feature continues to be the subtropical ridge located to the north of Kiko. A slow westward motion should continue for the next couple of days. A turn toward the west-northwest is forecast by days 3 and 4 as an upper-level trough north of Hawaii begins to erode the western portion of the subtropical ridge. There remains above normal along-track spread in the model suite, but not as much spread as yesterday, and the day 5 positions of the GFS and ECMWF are in fairly good agreement. The official day 5 position is relatively close to an average of those models. Only minor adjustments have been made to the official forecast, which lies close to the TVCE consensus. Through the next 48 h, Kiko should remain over sea-surface temperatures of 27-28C, with light to moderate easterly wind shear of 10-15 kt. The environmental air is a bit dry and stable, and this might prevent rapid intensification. However, steady strengthening still appears likely over the next day or two. By day 4, Kiko will reach somewhat cooler water temperatures as it moves into a drier environment. The new NHC forecast shows a slightly higher peak intensity of 100 kt, and is near the high end of the intensity guidance suite through day 3. Some weakening is likely in 4-5 days when Kiko reaches the cooler water and drier air, but the official forecast still maintains Kiko at hurricane strength through day 5.
