Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
500 PM PDT Mon Jul 7 2025

For the eastern and central North Pacific east of 180 longitude:

Central East Pacific (EP96):
Shower and thunderstorm activity associated with an area of low
pressure located several hundred miles southwest of the southern tip
of the Baja California peninsula has decreased since earlier today.
The system is moving west-northward into increasingly hostile
environmental conditions, and tropical cyclone development is no
longer expected.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...near 0 percent.

South of Southwestern Mexico:
An area of low pressure could form several hundred miles offshore of
southwestern Mexico late this week. Environmental conditions are
expected to only be marginally conducive for development of this
system as it moves to the west-northwest, well off the coast of
Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.

MD 1596 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 494... FOR EASTERN NORTH DAKOTA AND NORTHWESTERN MINNESOTA
Mesoscale Discussion 1596 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0457 PM CDT Mon Jul 07 2025 Areas affected...Eastern North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 494... Valid 072157Z - 072330Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 494 continues. SUMMARY...The threat for a tornado or two and occasional large hail/wind damage will persist. DISCUSSION...A few supercells are ongoing across east central and northeast ND. The more favorable zone for a tornado or two will remain along the northwest-southeast oriented baroclinic zone across extreme northeast ND, where both vertical shear/buoyancy and vertical vorticity are maximized along and to the immediate cool side of the front. Farther south, a couple of storms are ongoing immediately ahead of the surface wind shift/trough. Moderate buoyancy is present through this zone where surface temperatures have warmed into the mid-upper 70s with mid 60s dewpoints, but relatively straight hodographs support some potential for large hail. Overall, storms are expected to remain semi-discrete and the severe threat should peak between now and 00z in the zone of modest forcing for ascent with a midlevel shortwave trough now moving over northeast ND. ..Thompson.. 07/07/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0500 PM CDT Mon Jul 07 2025 Valid 091200Z - 151200Z ...Day 3/Wednesday... Stronger west winds with the arrival of a mid-level short wave trough and attendant cold front are expected across the Columbia Basin where fuels remain dry. Although cooler temperatures and slightly higher humidity arrive with the cold front, sustained west winds of 15-25 mph will continue to support a fire weather threat amid dry fuels across the Columbia Basin. A mid-level short wave trough will translate over a broad ridge situated over the Southwestern U.S. Collocation of ascent ahead of a mid-level jet max and antecedent mid-level moisture should support isolated thunderstorms with limited rainfall across southeastern OR/southwestern ID on Day 3/Wednesday. The accelerated mid-level flow on the southern periphery of the aforementioned short wave along with a deep/well-mixed boundary layer will promote elevated west-southwest winds across much of the Great Basin and portions of southern Idaho. The breezy and very dry conditions support at least a 40% probability for critical fire weather conditions across the region amid an expected dry fuelscape. ...Day 4/Thursday... The mid-level short wave edges eastward into the Southern Rockies bringing elevated west winds to the Intermountain West and great Four Corners region Day 4/Thursday. A 40% probability for critical fire weather was introduced into southern UT and northern AZ where fuels will go under several days of drying through midweek, becoming more receptive to wildfire spread. ...Day 5-8/Friday-Monday... Building heat is expected across much of the Western U.S. through the weekend under an expanding mid-level ridge over southern CA which will promote a limited wind threat across the region. Monsoon moisture and associated thunderstorms will remain confined to southern AZ and NM through the weekend. ..Williams.. 07/07/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0500 PM CDT Mon Jul 07 2025 Valid 091200Z - 151200Z ...Day 3/Wednesday... Stronger west winds with the arrival of a mid-level short wave trough and attendant cold front are expected across the Columbia Basin where fuels remain dry. Although cooler temperatures and slightly higher humidity arrive with the cold front, sustained west winds of 15-25 mph will continue to support a fire weather threat amid dry fuels across the Columbia Basin. A mid-level short wave trough will translate over a broad ridge situated over the Southwestern U.S. Collocation of ascent ahead of a mid-level jet max and antecedent mid-level moisture should support isolated thunderstorms with limited rainfall across southeastern OR/southwestern ID on Day 3/Wednesday. The accelerated mid-level flow on the southern periphery of the aforementioned short wave along with a deep/well-mixed boundary layer will promote elevated west-southwest winds across much of the Great Basin and portions of southern Idaho. The breezy and very dry conditions support at least a 40% probability for critical fire weather conditions across the region amid an expected dry fuelscape. ...Day 4/Thursday... The mid-level short wave edges eastward into the Southern Rockies bringing elevated west winds to the Intermountain West and great Four Corners region Day 4/Thursday. A 40% probability for critical fire weather was introduced into southern UT and northern AZ where fuels will go under several days of drying through midweek, becoming more receptive to wildfire spread. ...Day 5-8/Friday-Monday... Building heat is expected across much of the Western U.S. through the weekend under an expanding mid-level ridge over southern CA which will promote a limited wind threat across the region. Monsoon moisture and associated thunderstorms will remain confined to southern AZ and NM through the weekend. ..Williams.. 07/07/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
