...Synopsis...
Elevated fire-weather conditions are anticipated today across
portions of eastern Wyoming into western Nebraska and far-northern
Colorado. Additional Elevated fire-weather concerns exist over
portions of central Montana.

...Wyoming into Colorado/Nebraska...
Sustained dry downslope winds of 20+ MPH out of the west-northwest,
combined with 15-20% relative humidity, will support at least
Elevated fire-weather conditions. Though meteorological conditions
could reach Critical criteria, fire-weather concerns are mitigated
by an overall lack of receptiveness of fuels to wildfire ignition
and spread at this time.

...Central Montana...
Strong northwesterly surface winds of 25-30 MPH, with gusts up to 50
MPH, are forecast across portions of central and eastern Montana.
However, minimum relative humidity is expected to remain around
20-25% with generally cooler surface temperatures. Though relative
humidity is a limiting factor, fine dead fuels will support at least
Elevated highlights at this time.
