...Synopsis...
A broad trough should be situated across the central CONUS through
the day today with northwest flow across the western CONUS, and an
embedded mid-level speed max should begin impinging upon the Pacific
Northwest overnight tonight. Despite the delayed arrival of the
speed max, some breezy conditions (gusts to 20-30 mph) are expected
to develop this afternoon across western parts of the Snake River
plain in Idaho along with RH near 5-15% and dry fuels. For this
reason, an Elevated area is included across this region.

Additionally, some transient, localized Elevated conditions may
occur in the lee of Cascade ranges across central Washington with
downslope winds. However, RH may be a bit marginal (15-25%), and the
strongest winds are expected to last less than 3 hours. For these
reasons, have held off on Elevated highlights in this area.
