Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0129 AM CDT Wed Jun 26 2024

Valid 261200Z - 271200Z

...Synopsis...
Isolated dry thunderstorms will be possible across portions of the
western and northwestern Great Basin as early as this morning. Then,
late this morning through this afternoon, additional isolated dry
thunderstorms may develop along and east of the Cascades of WA.
These areas will also be favored regions for increasing west to
southwest sustained surface winds around 20-25 mph via a tightening
surface pressure gradient along and just behind a cold front.
Clearer skies in the wake of mid-level ascent accompanying a
shortwave trough will also allow for deeper mixing/momentum transfer
of stronger flow from aloft across these regions. The lowest RH is
anticipated over the Great Basin, where low teens should persist
throughout most of the day. Further north, east of the Cascades,
minimum RH will range from 20-30 percent.
