Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0445 PM CDT Sun Oct 06 2024

Valid 081200Z - 141200Z

A relatively stable and stagnant mid-level flow pattern is expected
across the US over the next several days. High pressure over the
West will gradually expand eastward as mid-level ridging intensifies
over the Plains. The increase in ridging will gradually shift
stronger flow aloft northwards towards the international border.
Beneath the ridge, high pressure will support dry and very warm
conditions over much of the central and western US through the next
several days. However, winds are expected to be relatively light
over much of the CONUS, limiting the potential for more widespread
fire-weather concerns.

Fire-weather potential may begin to increase later this week into
the weekend as the ridge begins to weaken and stronger flow aloft
migrates south. Occasional gusty winds could develop over the
northern Rockies and Plains as a strong cold front moves across the
Plains and western US. The increase in winds may overlap with areas
of dry fuels and continued warm/dry conditions supporting the
potential for elevated fire-weather concerns. Some fire-weather risk
may continue into the weekend as the cold front progresses, but
confidence in the exact timing/coverage of any widespread
fire-weather conditions remains low.
