The Elevated area was expanded slightly southward into southern NV
and far northwest AZ based on the latest surface observations and
high-resolution guidance. Along the western periphery of deeper
monsoonal moisture, isolated dry thunderstorms are possible over
parts of central UT this afternoon, and a lightning-induced ignition
or two cannot be ruled out given near-critical to locally critical
fuels. However, this activity looks too isolated/marginal for dry
thunderstorm highlights.

...Synopsis...
Upper ridging will remain in place across the central CONUS as a
broad mid-level trough persists over the Interior West today. Broad
surface lee troughing across the Great Basin will support Elevated
dry and windy conditions by afternoon. Surface troughing to the lee
of the southern Rockies may also support a localized, brief
wildfire-spread threat over portions of the southern Plains, where
fuel ERCs are forecast to rise into the 80th-90th percentile range.
