The forecast remains on track, and please see the previous discussion for more details. ..Nauslar.. 11/26/2025 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1234 AM CST Wed Nov 26 2025/ ...Synopsis... Fire weather concerns are expected to be limited today across the country. Widespread rainfall across the southern CONUS along with snowfall and cold temperatures across the Plains/Midwest will negate fire weather concerns for much of the country. Dry conditions will persist across parts of the Southeast, but rain chances may improve soil moisture over the next 24 hours. Surface observations along the southern CA coast show winds beginning to increase to 15-25 mph within the coastal terrain as an offshore pressure gradient becomes established. This gradient will likely peak this morning with pockets of 20-25 mph sustained winds likely for wind-prone locations. Downslope warming/drying may support transient elevated conditions, but ERCs remain depressed after widespread rainfall in recent weeks, which should limit fire weather concerns. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
