...Synopsis...
Upper ridging will generally prevail across the western and central
U.S. today, though some de-amplification of the ridge is expected as
multiple mid-level impulses pivot anticyclonically around the ridge.
Given overall weak large-scale forcing with this upper-air pattern,
only localized bouts of Elevated surface wind/RH conditions are
likely by afternoon peak heating, mainly in terrain-favoring
locations of the Pacific Northwest, northern Rockies, and Plains
states. Otherwise, monsoonal moisture will continue to impinge on
the northern Rockies, supporting thunderstorm development by
afternoon peak heating. Localized wildfire start or spread concerns
may exist wherever lightning can strike away from precipitation
cores into dry fuel beds, or where gusty surface winds can develop.
