Further amplification of a western CONUS trough will result in the development of a closed midlevel low over central CA on Sunday. Preceding this feature, deep-layer south-southwesterly flow will strengthen across portions of the Great Basin, with boundary-layer mixing yielding sustained south-southwesterly surface winds of 15-20 mph amid 10-15 percent RH. These dry/breezy conditions, combined with at least modestly receptive fuels across portions of central/eastern NV, will result in elevated fire-weather conditions. ..Weinman.. 09/26/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
