A broad upper cyclone will be situated in the northern Plains today.
Strong mid-level winds will remain across the southern Rockies. A
surface cyclone will deepen in the southern High Plains.

...Southwest...
Strong surface winds will develop in response to the upper trough
and surface cyclone to the east. Winds of 15-25 mph appear probable
with locally higher speeds in terrain-favored areas. RH will fall to
10-15% though single digits could occur locally. Fuels in the area
will continue to support an elevated to critical fire weather
