Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0121 PM CDT Tue Jun 11 2024

Valid 121200Z - 131200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

The previous forecast remains valid. Increasing south to west
surface flow will develop Wednesday afternoon from the southern
Great Basin near southeastern NV/western UT to northeast of the
Mogollon Rim of AZ respectively. An Elevated area was considered
here, but the highest wind speeds will only overlap near to just
above average fuels. Still, a few hours of elevated meteorological
fire weather conditions remain possible, with low teens to
single-digits RH also anticipated within these regions.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0156 AM CDT Tue Jun 11 2024/

...Synopsis...
Ahead of a slow-moving midlevel low off the southern CA coast, a
belt of moderate southerly flow aloft will overspread the Desert
Southwest and southern Great Basin. This will promote modestly
breezy southerly surface winds across portions of northern AZ,
southern NV, and southern UT -- where a deep/dry boundary layer will
be in place. While locally elevated fire-weather conditions are
possible here, sustained surface winds appear too marginal for
fire-weather highlights, given near-normal fuels across much of the
area.
