Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0200 AM CDT Sun Sep 13 2026

Valid 141200Z - 151200Z

...Synopsis...
At least Elevated fire-weather conditions are forecast Monday as
strong jet streak associated with an upper-level low progresses from
the Northern Rockies into the Northern Great Plains. Meteorological
conditions will reach well into Critical criteria for wind and RH,
but potential precipitation and a somewhat unfavorable fuelscape
will generally temper the fire-weather concerns.


...Central and Eastern Wyoming into portions of the Northern Great
Plains...
Strong westerly winds of 25-30 MPH are forecast to develop across
southeastern Wyoming into the Nebraska Panhandle, with daytime
relative humidity as low as 10-15%. Though fuels guidance suggests
receptiveness to ignition and spread, a generally low-density
fuelscape and potential precipitation will serve to reduce overall
fire-weather concerns. Further north, winds of 30-35 MPH are
forecast with the postfrontal airmass that will have generally
higher relative humidity above 20% and cooler temperatures. Given
the mentioned uncertainties, the area and magnitude of fire-weather
highlights may change in subsequent updates.
