Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1134 PM CDT Sat Jul 12 2025

Valid 131200Z - 141200Z

...Synopsis...
A mid-level wave will begin to traverse the northern periphery of
the western ridge today, bringing an increase in westerly flow
across the Cascades in central Washington and northern Oregon.
Elevated fire weather conditions will be likely across the Cascade
Gaps and into the Columbia Basin, where relative humidity reductions
around 20 percent will overlap winds sustained 10-15 mph (locally
higher). An Elevated was maintained with this outlook to support
potential for increased fire spread potential.

...Dry Thunderstorms...
A mix of wet/dry thunderstorms will be possible in Northern Arizona
today. Moisture banked across the Mogollon Rim becomes less with
northern extent, where PWs drop to around 0.25-0.50". Storm motions
will be around 10-20 mph, but coverage should allow multiple rounds
of storms. However, outside of heavier cores and where less coverage
is expected across the western rim, there could be a few instances
of dry lightning. Overall, the small coverage of this risk does not
warrant inclusion of an area at this time.
