...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

...Upper Midwest and Western Great Lakes...
Dry westerly/northwesterly flow in the wake of a departing surface
trough will encompass much of the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes
region today. West-northwest winds of 10-15 mph (locally 20 mph
closer to the Great Lakes) are expected this afternoon. However,
large scale juxtaposition of higher winds and low relative humidity
will be limited with drier and slightly warmer conditions expected
farther southwest. Locally elevated fire weather conditions are
possible, but short duration of west winds overlapping with
sufficiently low RH precludes highlights across a broader region.

...Synopsis...
A strong upper trough will move into the Northeast today. Across
much of the southern and central U.S., an upper ridge will be the
predominant feature. At the surface, a weak cold front stretching
from the Great Lakes into the southern High Plains will move
southeastward and lose definition.

Fire weather concerns are generally expected to remain low. Dry and
breezy conditions are expected within the central High Plains, upper
Mississippi Valley vicinity, the Florida Panhandle/North Florida,
and the southern High Plains. Between light winds, short duration of
elevated winds, and marginal RH during the afternoon, each of these
areas are only expected to experience locally elevated conditions.
