Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0136 PM CST Tue Dec 02 2025

Valid 031200Z - 041200Z

...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

No changes to the Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook as minimal fire weather
concerns exist across the contiguous U.S. An offshore pressure
gradient across southern CA amplified by a surface high moving into
the Interior West should increase Wednesday night into Day
3/Thursday morning as a cold front presses through the Desert
Southwest. This will result in east-northeast winds of 15-25 mph in
wind-prone areas and terrain gaps coupled with relative humidity
falling to 15-20% in some areas. However, fuels conducive to
significant wildfire spread remain subdued, mitigating impact from
the expected heightened fire weather conditions.

...Synopsis...
On the backside of a midlevel trough moving across the Four Corners
region, surface high pressure will build over the Great Basin. This
will yield an enhanced offshore pressure gradient across southern
CA. While locally dry/breezy conditions are expected (especially
over the wind-prone mountains and valleys), marginal fuels and
limited RH reductions should keep any fire-weather risk localized.
