FIRE WEATHER ZONE 491 ABOVE 7000 FEET AND ZONE 485...
.DISCUSSION...Moisture continues to rotate under a potent high
pressure system allowing for isolated to scattered thunderstorms over
mountainous terrain this afternoon. Expect coverage of these storms to
increase each evening into Saturday. Due to the prolonged period of hot
and dry conditions we have elected to issue Red Flags for dry
thunderstorms this afternoon and a Watch on Saturday. There are
increased concerns for fire starts ignited by lightning paired with
gusty outflow winds from said storms. Sustained winds are expected to
increase on Sunday which returns widespread concerns for red flag
criteria across the Western Slope for low RH and winds.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
