...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR SOUTHERN/CENTRAL UTAH AND FAR
NORTHERN ARIZONA...

...Synopsis...
Broad midlevel troughing will persist across the
Northwest/Intermountain West, while an expansive midlevel
anticyclone builds over the Southwest and southern/central Rockies.

...Great Basin into the central/northern Rockies...
Between the expansive midlevel anticyclone and broad midlevel
troughing, a belt of enhanced deep-layer west-southwesterly flow
will persist across the Great Basin into the northern/central
Rockies. Diurnal heating amid a dry antecedent air mass will yield
a deeply mixed boundary layer (single-digit to lower teens RH).
These dry conditions combined with 15-20 mph sustained
west-southwesterly surface winds will lead to widespread elevated
fire-weather conditions, with critical conditions expected over
southern/central UT into northern AZ (where the overlap of strong
winds and low RH atop receptive fuels will be maximized).
