203 FNUS56 KOTX 052200 FWFOTX Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Eastern Washington and North Idaho National Weather Service Spokane WA 300 PM PDT Fri Jul 5 2024 ...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 PM PDT THIS EVENING FOR FIRE ZONES 705,706... .DISCUSSION... ...HEAT WAVE ARRIVES THIS WEEKEND AND PERSIST WELL INTO NEXT WEEK... Warm, dry, and gusty northwest winds up to 20 mph will develop in the Cascade gaps and Waterville Plateau through the evening hours. Saturday winds will decrease in the Cascade gaps, but northerly winds down the Okanogan Valley onto the Columbia Basin 10-15 mph will occur. These winds will decrease through the afternoon hours. Confidence is growing that near record heat will occur Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday along with low daytime relative humidity and poor overnight recoveries. We will be keeping a close eye on how the hot ridge will break down. At this time, the forecast models suggest a gradual moderation of temperatures in the July 13 to 17 time frame. Next Wednesday, the 10th currently looks to see breezy winds across central WA. *************************************************************** Forecasts for 20 foot wind speeds (valleys and ridge tops) are 10 minute averages reflecting RAWS wind. *************************************************************** WAZ696-698-061415- East Washington Central Cascades (Zone 696)- East Washington North Cascades (Zone 698)- Including the cities of Stevens Pass, Lake Wenatchee Area, and Leavenworth 300 PM PDT Fri Jul 5 2024 .Tonight... * Sky/Weather.........Mostly clear. * LAL.................1. * Min Temperature.....61-71 valleys and 54-64 mountains. * 24 hr Trend........2 degrees cooler. * Max Humidity........30-45 percent valleys and 40-55 percent mountains. * 24 hr Trend........5-10 percent drier. * Humidity Recovery...Poor. * 20-foot winds....... * Valleys/Lwr Slopes...Northwest 3 to 11 mph with gusts to around 30 mph. * Ridges/Upr Slopes....Northwest 4 to 15 mph. * Haines Index........5 or moderate. * Mixing Height.......5000 ft AGL falling to near surface. * Transport Winds.....Northwest 10 to 20 mph. * CWR (> 0.10 IN).....0 percent. .SATURDAY... * Sky/Weather.........Sunny. * LAL.................1. * Max Temperature.....87-97 valleys and 74-84 mountains. * 24 hr Trend........2 degrees cooler. * Min Humidity........12-22 percent valleys and 21-30 percent mountains. * 24 hr Trend........2-5 percent wetter. * 20-foot winds....... * Valleys/Lwr Slopes...Northwest 3 to 8 mph with gusts to around 20 mph. * Ridges/Upr Slopes....Northwest 3 to 11 mph. * Haines Index........3 or very low. * Mixing Height.......8000 ft AGL. * Transport Winds.....Northwest 5 to 15 mph. * CWR (> 0.10 IN).....0 percent. .SATURDAY NIGHT... * Sky/Weather.........Mostly clear.
