...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST WYOMING...

...Synopsis...
An elongated mid-level jet will extend along the US/Canada border on
Wednesday. At the surface, a cold front will move through the Plains
with a weak surface low developing in the central Plains Wednesday
night. Ahead of this front, some dry and breezy conditions are
expected from the Texas/Oklahoma Panhandle to the Upper Midwest.
However, the majority of this region lacks dry fuels. Therefore, no
Elevated area is justified in this region.

An Elevated area has been drawn similar to the prior Day3 40%
outlook across southern Wyoming where fuels are critically dry.
Sustained winds of 25 to 30 mph are expected, as mid-level flow
strengthens and a deeply-mixed airmass permits some of this stronger
flow to reach the surface. Single-digit relative humidity is also
expected across this region on Wednesday afternoon. Given the
upper-end critical conditions expected, a Critical area has been
added within the broader Elevated, where these conditions are
expected to overlap the driest fuels across southeast Wyoming.
