Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0133 PM CDT Thu May 30 2024

Valid 311200Z - 011200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

Isolated drier thunderstorms are possible along and east of the
central mountain chain in New Mexico tomorrow. ERC-Y values in this
area are tracking near to above normal for this time of year, which
is between the 75th-90th annual percentiles. Additionally, gusty
outflow winds reaching severe criteria are possible with some of
these storms. Given the limited overlap of receptive fuels and
potential drier lightning and that this area has had multiple
consecutive days of thunderstorms, an Iso DryT was not included.
However, this area will be monitored for possible holdovers in the
coming days as warmer and drier conditions with stronger winds are
likely to develop.

...Synopsis...
Low fire spread potential is expected Friday. A belt of higher
sustained westerly surface winds (15-20 mph), under the base of a
mid to upper-level trough, and lower RH will develop across southern
WY during the afternoon. However, this region is well displaced from
the more receptive fuels found across the Southwest.
