A weak midlevel ridge will favor continued warm/dry conditions across much of the Southwest, where fuels continue to dry. While these warm/dry conditions will support locally elevated fire-weather conditions, a weak pressure gradient should limit sustained surface winds and the overall fire-weather threat. Farther north, moderate midlevel westerly flow on the backside of a shortwave trough will cross the northern Cascades. As a result, locally dry/breezy conditions are possible within the Cascade gaps over central WA and northern OR -- potentially yielding locally elevated fire-weather conditions. ..Weinman.. 06/10/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
