Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook 
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1038 AM CDT Thu Jun 09 2022

Valid 091700Z - 101200Z

Isolated dry thunderstorm highlights have been expanded
north-northwest into west-central Colorado as confidence has
increased in a couple of thunderstorms developing in this region
later this afternoon, where fuels are also critically dry.
Otherwise, the previous forecast (see below) remains on track, with
no changes or additions made.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0150 AM CDT Thu Jun 09 2022/

...Synopsis...
Over parts of the Southwest and southern/central Rockies, sufficient
midlevel moisture co*bined with strong diurnal heating over the
higher terrain will support isolated to widely scattered high-based
thunderstorm development during the afternoon. Given a
hot/deeply-mixed boundary layer (widespread 10-15 percent RH) and
critically dry fuels, isolated lightning-induced ignitions will be
possible during the initial stages of development over parts of
south-central CO, NM, and southeast AZ. In addition, gusty/erratic
outflow winds could acco*pany the stronger storms. 

Elsewhere, locally enhanced fire-weather conditions will be possible
over parts of the southern Great Basin (particularly over southern
and eastern UT), where 10-15 percent RH and breezy surface winds are
expected. However, the localized nature of the threat precludes
highlights at this time.
