Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1254 PM CST Tue Jan 07 2025 Valid 081200Z - 091200Z ...EXTREMELY CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COAST... ...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COAST... The previous forecast remains on track with only minor modifications made based on trends in recent guidance. Confidence remains very high in the continuation of critical fire weather conditions for much of Wednesday. Recent HREF and other high-resolution guidance continues to suggest the highest probability for sustained extremely critical conditions remains across Ventura to western Los Angeles counties where RH values should drop into the 5-10% range coincident with 30-40 mph sustained winds for a few hours Wednesday morning and afternoon. See the previous discussion below for additional forecast details. ..Moore.. 01/07/2025 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0138 AM CST Tue Jan 07 2025/ ...Synopsis... A cutoff upper low pressure system within the lower Colorado River Valley into the Gulf of California will slowly continue to sag southeastward on Wednesday. A strong mid-level jet will remain favorably oriented with offshore winds in southern California through mid-afternoon. A strong surface high, though weakening through the day, should remain sufficiently intense to drive strong offshore surface winds across southern California. ...Southern California... Strong surface winds of 25-40 mph (with significant wind gusts within the terrain-favored areas) are expected during the morning into at least the early afternoon. While some locations may experience some RH recovery overnight, RH will begin to drop to around 10-15% as temperatures rise during the day. Given the intensity of the winds, extreme fire behavior appears likely should ignitions occur. Extremely critical fire weather is most likely for portion of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. With high pressure extending farther south than on Monday, critical fire weather will extend to the San Diego vicinity as well. Even though the upper-level winds will weaken along with the offshore gradient, elevated to critical fire weather is expected to continue into Thursday morning. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

SPC 1930Z Day 3 Outlook
Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1243 PM CST Tue Jan 07 2025 Valid 091200Z - 101200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Isolated, non-severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of the western Gulf Coast States on Thursday into Thursday night. ...TX/LA... A northern-stream shortwave impulse should phase with the closed mid/upper low in the Gulf of CA vicinity, yielding a longwave trough from south-central Canada to northwest Mexico by Thursday night. Downstream low-level warm-moist advection will yield increasingly widespread precipitation across the south-central states on Thursday as a weak surface cyclone becomes established off the western Gulf Coast. Despite ample precipitation coverage, thunder potential appears slim. Very isolated thunder from parcels rooted near 700 mb may linger Thursday morning in the central TX vicinity. Thereafter, scant elevated buoyancy should become confined to the coastal plain, initially across Deep South TX and then shifting north-northeast through the rest of the period. Relatively warm upper-level temperatures in conjunction with weakening mid-level lapse rates may preclude charge separation inland. Some thunder potential is expected near the coast, with greater coverage over the adjacent offshore waters. ..Grams.. 01/07/2025 Read more
