Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0151 AM CDT Thu Apr 18 2024

Valid 191200Z - 201200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

...Synopsis...
Generally zonal flow will continue over the US ahead of a subtle
southern stream trough over northern Mexico. At the surface, a
back-door cold front will move into the southern high Plains and
Rockies as high pressure intensifies over the central CONUS. With
upslope trajectories, cooler temperatures, and weak winds, little
overlap of dry and breezy conditions is expected over the southern
High Plains. Fire-weather concerns should remain low for most areas.
Portions of the Southwest and southern Great Basin are expected to
generally remain dry. But, at present, fuels are not receptive and
winds are forecast to remain modest limiting the potential for
fire-weather concerns.
