SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0203 PM CDT Sat Jun 29 2024 Valid 301200Z - 011200Z ...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN GREAT BASIN... ...20z Update... Minimal changes have been made to the valid outlook. The ISODRYT area was expanded north into southeast OR to better capture expected storm coverage over the eastern Cascades. Otherwise, please see the prior discussion for more information. ..Lyons.. 06/29/2024 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0158 AM CDT Sat Jun 29 2024/ ...Synopsis... An upper ridge will become established over the central CONUS as a mid-level trough and associated upper support overspreads the Interior West tomorrow (Sunday). Stronger flow aloft mixing down to the surface via boundary-layer mixing by afternoon peak heating will support dry and windy conditions that support wildfire spread. The best chance for Critical conditions will be over southeastern Nevada into western Utah, where 20+ mph sustained southwesterly surface winds will coincide with 5-15 percent RH and at least modestly receptive fuels for several hours. Meanwhile, at least isolated thunderstorm development is expected ahead of a surface cold front accompanying the mid-level trough over northeast California into southwestern Idaho. Though a mix of wet and dry storms are possible, stronger mid-level flow aloft suggests these storms should move quickly eastward, with minimal precipitation accumulations. Given drying fuels in this region, lightning-induced wildfire ignitions are possible, necessitating the introduction of isolated dry thunderstorm highlights. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
