Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0139 AM CDT Sat Nov 02 2024

Valid 031200Z - 041200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

...Synopsis...
On the backside of a highly amplified large-scale trough over the
Intermountain West, strong deep-layer northerly flow will overspread
CA. In response, the offshore pressure gradient will tighten across
southern CA -- along the southwestern periphery of a strengthening
surface anticyclone over the northern Great Basin.

The tightening offshore pressure gradient and strong mid/upper-level
northerly flow will promote strong/gusty northerly surface winds
across portions of southern CA. While RH reductions may be somewhat
marginal, these winds will favor locally enhanced fire-weather
conditions over wind-prone mountains/valleys -- especially into the
overnight/early morning hours when the pressure gradient peaks.
However, the fire-weather threat appears too localized for an
Elevated area at this time. Farther north, locally dry and breezy
conditions are expected across portions of the Sacramento Valley
during the afternoon. However, preceding rainfall and marginal RH
reductions should limit the overall fire-weather threat here.
