No changes to the Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook as minimal fire weather concerns exist across the contiguous U.S. An offshore pressure gradient across southern CA amplified by a surface high moving into the Interior West should increase Wednesday night into Day 3/Thursday morning as a cold front presses through the Desert Southwest. This will result in east-northeast winds of 15-25 mph in wind-prone areas and terrain gaps coupled with relative humidity falling to 15-20% in some areas. However, fuels conducive to significant wildfire spread remain subdued, mitigating impact from the expected heightened fire weather conditions. ..Williams.. 12/02/2025 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0141 AM CST Tue Dec 02 2025/ ...Synopsis... On the backside of a midlevel trough moving across the Four Corners region, surface high pressure will build over the Great Basin. This will yield an enhanced offshore pressure gradient across southern CA. While locally dry/breezy conditions are expected (especially over the wind-prone mountains and valleys), marginal fuels and limited RH reductions should keep any fire-weather risk localized. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
