Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0208 AM CDT Mon Jun 13 2022
Valid 141200Z - 151200Z
...Synopsis...
A large-scale trough will remain in place over the western CONUS,
while a belt of strong midlevel west-southwesterly flow overspreads
the central Rockies and adjacent Plains. As a result, a lee surface
low will deepen over southeast CO/southwest KS, with a tight surface
pressure gradient developing on the northern and southern
peripheries of the low.
...Southwest into the Southern/Central Rockies...
Widespread 10-15 percent RH is expected during the afternoon, while
breezy west-southwesterly surface winds of 15-20 mph overspread the
area. While locally critical conditions will be possible (especially
from northeast NM into the western TX/OK Panhandles), fuels are
slightly less receptive to wildfire spread over these areas --
precluding Critical highlights at this time.
...Central Rockies and adjacent High Plains...
A swath of strong westerly surface winds near 25-30 mph is expected
along the northern periphery of the deepening surface low. While
downslope warming/drying should favor 15-20 percent RH along this
corridor, fuels are only modestly receptive to wildfire spread.
Therefore, despite the possibility of critical meteorological
conditions, Elevated highlights have been maintained.
