Broad upper troughing will overspread the north-central to eastern CONUS today, supporting the northward return of low-level moisture, as well as scattered to widespread showers and thunderstorms to much of the U.S. east of the Rockies. As such, wildfire spread concerns should be limited for much of the central and eastern CONUS. While overall dry conditions will prevail across portions of the Southwest into the Great Basin, overall fuel receptiveness and strength of the surface wind fields appear too marginal for fire weather highlights. One area for some wildfire-spread potential is northeast Montana. Here, a surface cold front will sweep across the region, with widespread 25+ mph sustained northwesterly surface winds likely during the afternoon. Since RH may dip to 20 percent with the aforementioned strong surface wind field, and given ERCs approaching the 80th percentile in spots, Elevated highlights have been introduced for far northeastern Montana. ..Squitieri.. 06/07/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
