...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

...Synopsis...
A cold airmass, associated with a large-scale mid-level trough, will
dominate much of the CONUS on Saturday. On the western periphery of
the trough, where the geopotential height gradient is  strongest
between an embedded shortwave trough and broad ridging off the U.S.
West Coast, a strong jet streak is forecast to progress
south-southeastward across the Intermountain West. This will result
in dry and windy conditions across the Four Corners region, with
sustained winds reaching 20-25 MPH. Despite the strong surface winds
and low relative humidity, generally cooler temperatures and fuels
that aren't overly receptive to wildfire spread will keep any fire
threat localized.
