Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

Valid 061200Z - 071200Z

...Synopsis...
...Isolated Dry Thunderstorms...
Increasing mid-level ascent associated with a shortwave trough will
impact the northern and central Rockies on Tuesday. Mainly mid-level
moisture above drier boundary layer conditions will support dry
thunderstorm chances, with little wetting rainfall expected. Fuels
from southwestern MT, southeastward into WY, eastern UT, and
northwestern CO are sufficiently dry for new lightning ignitions. In
addition, gusty and erratic outflow winds will be possible with any
stronger storms that develop.


...Elevated Fire Weather, Snake River Plain Idaho...
As the shortwave advances across the northern/central Rockies, a
band of enhanced mid-level westerly flow will overspread portions of
Idaho and Montana. An increase in winds is expected across the Snake
River Plain, where relative-humidity reductions to 10-15 percent
will overlap sustained winds 15-20 mph. Occasional localized
critical conditions may be possible. Overall, this looks to be too
localized to include an area with this outlook.
