Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0154 AM CDT Tue Aug 16 2022

Valid 171200Z - 181200Z

...Synopsis...
An upper ridge will continue to amplify across the western CONUS as
mid-level troughing persists across the MS Valley to the Atlantic
Coastline tomorrow/Wednesday. While the large-scale surface wind
field beneath subtle forcing should remain sub-optimal for
supporting significant wildfire spread, a mid-level impulse may
traverse the northern Rockies late in the day. Modest surface low
development and the southward surging of a cold front will be
possible across portions of central and eastern Montana along with
locally Elevated conditions.

Of bigger concern will be the continued northwestward transport of
monsoonal moisture atop the southern Cascades, where the latest
guidance consensus shows greater confidence in thunderstorm coverage
by late afternoon/early evening. Isolated dry thunderstorm
highlights have been introduced when considering both storm coverage
and the presence of very dry fuels.
