Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1151 AM CDT Mon Oct 13 2025

Valid 131700Z - 141200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

No changes needed for the Day 1 outlook with no significant overlap
of elevated winds, low relative humidity and receptive fuels across
the contiguous U.S. Fuels remain quite dry across portions of
central TX and the Deep South where limited Gulf moisture return is
in place. Afternoon relative humidity in the 25-30% range is
expected, although light northerly winds across this region will
continue to limit significant fire weather concerns today.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0140 AM CDT Mon Oct 13 2025/

...Synopsis...
Preceding a deep mid/upper-level low over the West Coast, strong
deep-layer south-southwesterly flow will overspread a dry air mass
over the Great Basin. While this will yield dry and windy conditions
during the afternoon, fuels are generally unsupportive of large-fire
potential at this time.

Farther east, a light offshore-flow regime will continue to favor
warm and dry conditions across the Southeast -- where fuels are
becoming increasingly dry. However, light northerly winds should
generally mitigate the fire-weather threat.
