Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0501 PM CDT Sun Jun 15 2025

Valid 171200Z - 231200Z

...Day 3-4/Tuesday-Wednesday...
An eastward propagating upper-level short wave trough and associated
increased mid-level flow will overspread the Southwest on Day
3/Tuesday. Critical probabilities were maintained as prolonged burn
periods with poor to moderate RH recoveries and single digit daytime
RH values combine with southwest winds of 15-25 mph across eastern
Arizona and western New Mexico. A 40 percent probability area was
added for the Columbia Basin for Day 4/Tuesday as another Pacific
Northwest short wave trough moves into the region supporting
downslope/leeward drying and breezy west winds across the area amid
dry fuels.

...Day 5-8/Thursday-Sunday...
A deepening upper-level trough begins to impact the western U.S. on
Day 5/Thursday, promoting a multi-day fire weather threat across the
Great Basin with fire weather concerns shifting east into the
Southwest and Intermountain West into the weekend. Fuels will
continue to dry across the region under an above normal temperature
regime with dry, breezy southwest winds setting the stage for
increased fire spread potential. Dry and breezy conditions could
also impact ongoing active fires across the region.
