Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0131 PM CST Wed Dec 18 2024

Valid 191200Z - 201200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

No changes to the ongoing forecast. With a potent shortwave trough
move southeastward into the central Plains, a deepening surface low
will promote winds of 20-30 mph over parts of western/central
Nebraska. Winds will support a locally elevated fire weather threat,
but marginal temperatures/RH should limit greater concerns.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0158 AM CST Wed Dec 18 2024/

...Synopsis...
Mid-level ridging over the western US is forecast to move eastward
Thursday as the overall upper-air pattern beco*es more amplified. At
the surface, high pressure over the Great Basin will move into the
Rockies. Aside from some residual offshore flow over parts of
southern CA, widespread fire-weather concerns are not expected.

...Southern CA...
Offshore winds are expected to gradually diminish overnight
D1/Wednesday and into early D2/Thursday, as high pressure over the
Great Basin shifts eastward. While winds should generally weaken,
some lingering, locally elevated fire-weather conditions may
continue in the typical Santa Ana mountains/foothills through the
afternoon. Limited in spatial coverage and duration, fire-weather
concerns are not expected to be widespread.
