Fire weather concerns will remain low across the CONUS on D2/Tuesday. A trough will bring scattered thunderstorms across portions of the Great Basin. Though these thunderstorms are expected to be mainly wet, a few pockets of marginally receptive fuels and ERCs ranging from the 50-70th percentile across portions of Nevada may allow for lightning ignition. Elsewhere, a cold front will continue to stretch across the far southern Plains bringing shower and thunderstorm activity across portions of western and south-central Texas. Mid-level heights will begin to rise again across the central US with warming temperatures but generally light winds. ..Thornton.. 09/21/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
