Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1135 AM CDT Sat Sep 17 2022

Valid 171700Z - 181200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

Dry and breezy conditions are ongoing across portions of the
Southwest, but fuels remain moist across this region. Therefore,
fire weather conditions remain minimal. Elsewhere, light winds
preclude widespread fire weather concerns. See previous discussion
below.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1259 AM CDT Sat Sep 17 2022/

...Synopsis...
A predominantly weak, zonal flow pattern across the CONUS will begin
to break down throughout the day as a mid-level trough enters
portions of the Pacific Northwest and northern California coast.
Consequently, broad 20-25 kt southwesterly flow will overspread much
of the West. At the surface, a cold front will move through portions
of the Pacific Northwest. In advance of this front, diurnally driven
southwesterly winds will develop, perhaps reaching sustained values
of 15-20 mph, while RH values fall into the upper teens. These
conditions may support a localized threat for elevated fire-weather
conditions, mainly across northwest Nevada and far southeast Oregon.
Otherwise, fire-weather concerns are expected remain low elsewhere
across the CONUS.
