Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0241 PM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025

Valid 161200Z - 171200Z

Only minor adjustments were made to previous forecast highlights. A
broad dry thunderstorm threat will remain across portions of the
Great Basin, Utah and Western Slope. Thermodynamic profiles remain
supportive of high-based thunderstorms with dry sub cloud layer
evaporation minimizing appreciable rainfall while increasing
potential new lightning ignitions over critically dry fuels. Dry and
breezy conditions across eastern NV and west-central UT will promote
an elevated fire weather threat amid fuel ERC values around the 97th
percentile, supporting fire spread.

A broad area of dry thunderstorm activity will be possible again
