Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0459 PM CDT Sat Aug 24 2024

Valid 261200Z - 011200Z

On Day 3/Monday, enhanced deep-layer southwesterly flow -- preceding
a midlevel shortwave trough crossing the northern Rockies -- will
overspread the northern/central Rockies. Over southern/central
Wyoming, boundary-layer mixing into the enhanced flow aloft will
contribute to dry/breezy conditions during the afternoon. While
elevated conditions are possible, confidence in the development of
critical conditions is too low for probabilities. 

Thereafter, a deep mid/upper-level low will track east-southeastward
from British Columbia into portions of the Northwest on Day
4/Tuesday. A related belt of strong midlevel west-southwesterly flow
will cross the Cascades, promoting dry/windy downslope conditions in
the Columbia Basin. Elevated to locally critical conditions will be
possible, given some antecedent drying of fuels across the area. 

As the trough continues east on Day 5/Wednesday, dry/breezy
conditions will spread eastward into the northern Rockies,
potentially yielding elevated fire-weather conditions. However,
preceding rainfall over much of the region limits confidence in the
overall fire-weather risk -- precluding probabilities at this time.
