Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0228 AM CDT Tue Oct 15 2024

Valid 151200Z - 161200Z

...Synopsis...
A strong mid-level trough will move south across the central Plains
and Midwest today. This will sharpen a surface cold front and
tighten the pressure gradient across the Plains as strong high
pressure builds into the Upper Midwest. Sustained winds around 25
mph are expected in the wake of this cold front from southern Kansas
into southwest Missouri, northwest Arkansas, across most of Oklahoma
and into northwest Texas. In addition, relative humidity is also
expected to be 15 to 25 percent. Fuels have cured across most of
this area, as 30 day precipitation deficits range from 2 to 6
inches. Therefore, an Elevated delineation is warranted.

Some breezy conditions are possible across the northern Plains this
afternoon on the western periphery of the anticyclone where fuels
are critically dry. However no Elevated area has been delineated, as
it appears the strongest winds will be in areas with 25 to 35
percent relative humidity.
