Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1102 AM CDT Fri May 31 2024

Valid 311700Z - 011200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

Isolated dry thunderstorms remain possible along and east of the
central mountain chain in New Mexico. Additionally, the Indios Fire
northwest of Santa Fe produced a pyroCb yesterday and could produce
another one today given the similar environment. In Florida, locally
elevated fire weather conditions remain possible in central/south
Florida away from the expected sea breeze thunderstorms.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0152 AM CDT Fri May 31 2024/

...Synopsis...
Relatively weak, quasi-zonal westerly flow aloft is expected over
the receptive fuels of the Southwest this afternoon. Most locations
will experience wind speeds less than 15 mph. Very localized
meteorological fire spread conditions may develop across far
southern NV, where sustained south winds will briefly approach or
exceed 20 mph late in the afternoon/early evening. A few
thunderstorms over western and southern FL today could become a
source for ignition due to lightning away from rain cores, where
fuels are becoming ever more receptive. The same will be true along
and east of the central mountain chain in New Mexico.
