Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0156 AM CDT Mon Sep 16 2024

Valid 171200Z - 181200Z

...Synopsis...
Strong deep-layer south-southwesterly flow preceding an amplified
large-scale trough over the West will impinge on the central High
Plains during the day. Here, a tightening pressure gradient along a
pronounced lee trough, and boundary-layer mixing into the strong
flow aloft, will favor 20-25 mph sustained southerly surface winds
(with higher gusts). These winds should overlap 20-25 percent RH for
a few hours, before a cold front and related precipitation
overspread the area from the west during the evening. Given
receptive fuels across the area, elevated fire-weather conditions
are expected during the afternoon (prior to the arrival of
precipitation).
