...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

...Synopsis...
Preceding an amplified large-scale trough over the West, a robust
midlevel speed maximum will overspread the northern/central Plains,
while a related cold front moves slowly eastward across the region.
At the tail end of the front, an evolving lee cyclone over
southeastern CO and strong midlevel flow across the Front Range will
yield dry/breezy downslope conditions across eastern CO during the
afternoon. Around 15-20 mph sustained west-southwesterly surface
winds and 10-15 percent RH will favor a couple hours of locally
elevated fire-weather conditions where any dry fuels exist.

Farther east, dry/breezy post-frontal conditions are expected across
the Mid-Atlantic region during the afternoon. This may result in
locally elevated fire-weather conditions over areas that missed out
on substantial precipitation during the last couple weeks.
