911 FNUS22 KWNS 250712 FWDDY2 Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0211 AM CDT Tue Jun 25 2024 Valid 261200Z - 271200Z ...Synopsis... A deepening surface pressure low near the ID/OR border is expected to accompany a mid to upper-level Pacific trough moving onshore Wednesday. The associated pressure gradient will tighten over the Pacific states (in particular across western OR) yielding breezy west to southwest surface winds ahead of an approaching cold front. Some initial cloud cover early in the day may briefly inhibit mixing, but clearer skies during the afternoon should allow for momentum transfer of stronger flow from aloft aiding in higher wind gusts. In addition, RH will drop into the low teens within this more deeply mixed air mass ahead of the front, across portions of the western and northwestern Great Basin. A few hours of elevated conditions are expected here. ..Barnes.. 06/25/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
