Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0235 PM CDT Sun Jul 07 2024

Valid 081200Z - 091200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

The previous forecast reasoning (see below) remains the same, and no
changes were made with this update. Locally elevated fire-weather
conditions are also possible along the western and southern portions
of the San Joaquin Valley (to include the Diablo Range southward
into the Antelope Valley) in CA. Here, continued hot/dry conditions
will briefly overlap diurnally enhanced, breezy/gusty surface winds
during the afternoon. However, any elevated conditions appear too
localized and/or brief for highlights at this time.

...Synopsis...
A highly amplified ridge will remain in place over the western CONUS
through the day on Monday, with modest northwesterly mid-level flow
over the Great Basin and southwestern CONUS. RH is expected to be in
the 5-15% range across much of this region during the afternoon with
fuels which are at least modestly receptive to fire spread. However,
due to the lack of a well-defined mid-level flow perturbation, any
surface winds necessary for Elevated or Critical fire conditions are
expected to be localized and/or transient. Therefore, no highlights
have been included on this outlook.
