An upper-level trough will continue eastward into the Northern Plains today. Upper-level winds across the Northwest into the northern Great Basin will remain modestly strong into the afternoon. Similarly, a modestly strong surface pressure gradient will remain across these areas before weakening overnight. ...OR/CA/NV into Snake River Plain... Though surface winds will be slightly weaker than on Sunday, 15-20 mph winds can generally be expected given the lingering presence of the synoptic features described earlier. Stronger winds do appear probable in the Snake River Plain due to terrain effects and favorable orientation of the mid-level winds. RH of 15-20% will be common by the afternoon. Elevated fire weather is expected with the greatest potential for locally critical conditions in the Snake River Plain. ..Wendt.. 06/24/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
