Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1131 AM CDT Mon Aug 15 2022

Valid 151700Z - 161200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

Fire weather concerns are limited today due to the lack of stronger
flow aloft. Brief locally gusty winds may develop across portions of
the southern Plains near a lee low this afternoon, but gusts should
not exceed 15-20 mph. Elsewhere, hot and dry conditions will persist
beneath the upper ridge, but the absence of strong winds will keep
fire weather conditions localized and minimal.

...Synopsis...
An upper ridge will persist over the western and central CONUS today
as multiple mid-level impulses crest the ridge. Overall weak flow
aloft and associated forcing around the ridge should limit
widespread significant wildfire spread concerns. However, locally
dry and breezy surface conditions may occur in terrain-favoring
areas with dry fuel beds across portions of the Pacific Northwest
into the northern Rockies and perhaps the southern Plains.
