guidance consensus and surface observations. For details, see the
previous discussion below.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0206 AM CDT Sat Jul 02 2022/

...Synopsis...
Upper ridging will persist across the Intermountain West into the
Plains as a mid-level trough amplifies along the West Coast today.
Surface low development across the Great Basin will encourage
Elevated dry and windy conditions across much of Nevada into western
Utah, with Critical conditions most likely across eastern Nevada to
the Utah border. Across the central Rockies into the Pacific
Northwest, scattered thunderstorm development is expected given the
presence of monsoonal moisture. A couple dry strikes are possible as
far west as Oregon, where storms will also be capable of erratic,
potentially severe wind gusts (please see the Day 1 Convective
Outlook for more details). However, dry thunderstorm highlights have
not been added since fuel receptiveness is expected to be mediocre
on a widespread basis.
