Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook

Valid 111200Z - 121200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

No forecast changes are required. Localized elevated conditions
remain likely across much of NV, but the overlap of persistent
gradient wind speeds above 15 mph with sufficiently dry fuels
appears limited and mostly confined to the northern Sierra Nevada in
northwest NV. Isolated thunderstorms are possible late afternoon and
overnight across portions of central and eastern WA, and may include
a few dry thunderstorms. However, confidence on the propensity for
dry lightning is too limited for highlights at this time. See the
previous discussion for additional details.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1257 AM CDT Sat Aug 10 2024/

...Synopsis...
For Sunday, zonal flow aloft will modestly amplify in the West as
another shortwave trough moves into northern California late in the
period. At the surface, the overall pattern will be more
diffuse/disorganized within the Great Basin, Northwest, and northern
Rockies. Some dry and marginally breezy conditions are possible in
parts of Nevada, though winds will remain too light for highlights.
Thunderstorm potential over sufficiently dry fuels appears to be
quite low as well.
