On Wednesday, an upper-level trough will deepen over the eastern CONUS with strong northwesterly flow upstream. At the surface, high pressure will build in over the central CONUS in the wake of a cold-frontal passage. Despite a shift to northerly surface winds over southern Plains, temperatures are still expected to warm into the upper 50s F. Given the strong northerly to northeasterly winds just above the surface, vertical mixing could lead to gusty winds around midday as RH values fall below 25% across portions of Oklahoma and northern Texas. Even with dry and breezy conditions, fuels across the region are generally not receptive for large wildfires, limiting fire-weather concerns. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
