Low-amplitude mid-level troughing over the Northern Rockies will begin to shift eastward Saturday as high pressure over the southern US continues to build. A belt of stronger mid-level flow will remain in place over parts of the Intermountain West, supporting dry downslope flow ahead of a weak cold front over the Northwest. ...ID into southwest WY... Gusty surface winds through central ID and southwest WY could support a few hours of elevated fire-weather potential Saturday. In the wake of the departing upper trough, continued mid-level zonal flow will linger over central ID. Confidence is highest that 15-20 mph surface winds will occur across portions of the central and eastern Snake River Plain Saturday afternoon. Coincident with RH below 20%, elevated fire-weather conditions are probable amid fuels that continue to dry. Farther east into WY, less confidence exists in sustained surface winds greater than 15 mph occurring on a widespread basis through the day. However, a very warm and dry air mass will remain in place. This could support some localized fire-weather concerns, especially where terrain-augmented winds may occasionally gust to 15-20 mph. ..Lyons.. 06/27/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
