Elevated to locally critical winds/RH are likely across portions of southeast Wyoming and eastern Colorado where west-northwest sustained winds of 15-30 mph gusting 25-50 mph and minimum RH of 15-30% are forecast. Elevated winds/RH are also likely from northwest Texas into southern/central Oklahoma tomorrow amid dry return flow, with southwest sustained winds of 10-20 mph and minimum RH of 18-30%. However, given the marginal fuel conditions and perhaps more local coverage of elevated winds/RH, Elevated areas were not added. ..Nauslar.. 12/10/2025 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1152 PM CST Tue Dec 09 2025/ ...Synopsis...

Westerly flow across the northern Rockies and surface troughing across the Plains will allow for some overlap of downslope flow with dry conditions across the central and southern High Plains.
