Valid 241200Z - 251200Z
...NO CRITICAL AREAS...
...Synopsis...
A mid-level trough will traverse the Northwest U.S. as broad but
weak cyclonic upper flow remains in place east of the Rockies today.
Ahead of the mid-level trough, adequate lift and buoyancy will
support scattered thunderstorm development, with at least isolated
thunderstorms capable of producing strong to severe wind gusts. Fuel
beds are receptive to wildfire spread on a spotty basis. However,
the co*bination of dry strikes away from precipitation cores into
dry fuel beds, and strong wind gusts exacerbating ongoing fires
suggests that at least localized wildfire-spread concerns exist,
especially along the Idaho/Montana border. Farther south across the
northern Great Basin, locally Elevated dry and windy conditions are
possible by afternoon peak heating. Please see the Day 1 Convective
Outlook for more details on the severe threat.
