Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1130 PM CDT Sat Jul 25 2026

Valid 271200Z - 281200Z

...Synopsis...
Upper ridging will persist over the western CONUS tomorrow (Monday).
However, upper flow pivoting around the ridge is expected to be
weaker compared to Day 1 (today). Therefore, wildfire-spread
concerns are expected to be overall milder. Nonetheless, effective
downward momentum transport of mid-level flow should occur along the
northern Sierra into portions of the northern Rockies given a deep
and well-mixed boundary layer. The latest guidance consensus depicts
widespread southwesterly surface winds exceeding 15 mph amid 20
percent RH for at least a few hours, warranting Elevated highlights
given dry fuels.
