Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0111 AM CDT Mon Jul 04 2022

Valid 041200Z - 051200Z

...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN GREAT
BASIN...

...Synopsis...
A mid-level short-wave trough positioned over the Pacific Northwest
will lift northeast into southwestern portions of Canada, while
another short-wave enters in its wake. Consequently, the broader
upper-level trough situated over much of the West will remain
quasi-stationary throughout the day. Southwesterly mid-level flow
within this regime will remain generally light, but approaching
30-35 kt over portions of the Great Basin.

...Portions of the Eastern Great Basin...
Diurnal heating/mixing will allow for afternoon sustained winds of
15-20 mph and RH values into the teens over a broad region,
extending from southern Nevada into central Wyoming. The region of
strongest winds should be confined to parts of southeast Nevada and
western Utah, where critical highlights are maintained. Elsewhere,
elevated fire-weather conditions will be possible where fuels remain
receptive to large-fire spread.
