An amplified large-scale trough will advance eastward across the western CONUS on Saturday. In response, a surface low will gradually deepen over the northern High Plains, while a lee trough extends southward along the remainder of the High Plains. The tightening pressure gradient peripheral to the deepening lee trough will result in breezy southerly surface winds over much of the Plains. Along the eastern periphery of the more substantial moisture return, around 15-20 mph sustained southerly surface winds will overlap 25-35 percent RH over the Middle MO Valley and northern Plains. This should favor several hours of elevated fire-weather conditions during the afternoon, followed by precipitation into the evening/overnight hours. Farther south, surface winds will not be quite as strong over the southern Plains. However, given dry/receptive fuels over parts of Northwest TX into southwest OK, around 15 mph sustained southerly surface winds and 20-25 percent RH could still yield locally elevated fire-weather conditions. ..Weinman.. 10/10/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
