Valid 231200Z - 291200Z
A series of mid-level troughs will encourage multiple rounds of
surface cyclone development across the central CONUS, reinforcing
surface high pressure west of the Rockies and along/east of the
Appalachians through next week. Low-level moisture, and meaningful
precipitation accumulations across the Intermountain West toward the
southern and eastern U.S., as well as cooler surface conditions over
the northern CONUS, should hold wildfire-spread conditions at bay.
Occasionally dry and breezy conditions may develop by afternoon peak
heating most days over the southern High Plains, driven by downslope
flow west of the aforementioned surface cyclones. However, modest
fuel receptiveness, and the brevity/localized nature of any dry or
windy conditions, should generally limit significant wildfire-spread
potential.
