...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

...Synopsis...
As the mid-level trough ejects over the central Rockies and into the
Plains early D2/Sunday, a lee low and trailing surface trough will
quickly deepen across parts of the High Plains. At the same time, a
cold front will approach from the interior West. Aided by strong
mid-level westerlies at the base of the trough and downslope
pressure gradients, several hours of strong surface winds (20-30
mph) are likely across parts of the central High Plains. These
strong winds may briefly overlap with areas of moderately low RH
(~30%) across western NE and eastern WY. 

Farther south into eastern NM and far West TX, lower RH will remain
possible with more mild temperatures and diurnal minimums of 20-25%.
However, winds here are expected to be slower and more transient,
owing to the weaker surface pressure falls and flow aloft. The net
result will be a few hours of locally dry and breezy conditions in
the lee of the Rockies where fuels are somewhat dry. While there is
some risk, fire-weather concerns are not expected to be widespread,
given the brief nature of the strong winds and lower RH, as well as
the passage of the cold front Sunday evening.
