Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1219 AM CDT Thu Apr 10 2025

Valid 111200Z - 121200Z

...Synopsis...
A near-stationary mid-level trough will amplify along the East Coast
as upper ridging continues to build over the central U.S. and
another mid-level trough traverses the Pacific Northwest tomorrow
(Friday). Ahead of the approaching Northwest mid-level trough,
surface lee troughing will take place across the central and
northern High Plains, supporting strong southerly flow in the
process. A dry airmass will be transported northward across the
northern High Plains, with 15-25 mph sustained southerly winds
overlapping with 15-25 percent RH tomorrow afternoon. Elevated
highlights have been introduced given dry/windy conditions
overlapping at least marginally to modestly dry fuels.

Meanwhile, a surface cold front is expected to sweep across the
Florida Peninsula tomorrow, with dry/breezy conditions likely in the
post-frontal regime. Winds may sustain over 15 mph for at least a
few hours during the afternoon, as RH dips as low as 20-30 percent
in some areas. Rainfall accumulations have barely exceeded 0.25
inches over the past week for most parts of the central Florida
Peninsula, and given the presence of dry fuels, Elevated highlights
have been introduced.
