Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0130 AM CDT Fri Jul 01 2022
Valid 021200Z - 031200Z
...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF THE GREAT BASIN...
...Synopsis...
Broad upper riding will persist across much of the western into the
central CONUS as a mid-level trough approaches the Great Basin
tomorrow/Saturday. Surface lee troughing across the Great Basin will
ensue, acco*panied by Critical dry/windy surface conditions across
eastern Nevada into far western Utah during the afternoon. Downslope
flow will also support Elevated fire weather conditions along the
lee of the northern Sierra. Monsoonal moisture will continue to
promote scattered thunderstorm development across the Intermountain
West into the Pacific Northwest by afternoon peak heating. Dry
thunderstorm highlights were withheld due to overall poor fuel
receptiveness to wildfire spread. However, any dry strikes that can
occur in a locally dry fuel bed across Oregon has a better chance at
igniting given the lack of rainfall in preceding days and because
erratic (potentially severe) wind gusts may acco*pany the storms.
Please see the Day 2 Convective Outlook for more details on the
Pacific Northwest severe threat.
