   ...Synopsis...
   A mid-level trough will impinge on the California coastline while
   generally upper-ridging builds over the central and eastern CONUS
   tomorrow (Thursday). Dry and occasionally breezy conditions are
   possible across parts of the Desert Southwest. However, the latest
   guidance consensus suggests that the surface wind field across
   Arizona into New Mexico will be too weak to warrant Elevated
   highlights at this time. Otherwise, another day of dry southeasterly
   winds will encourage Elevated wildfire-spread potential across
   western portions of the Florida Peninsula.

   Valid 241200Z - 301200Z

   Mid-level flow is forecast to gradually intensify and amplify as a
   broad upper trough moves into the western US this weekend. Continued
   lee troughing will favor dry downslope winds across the Southwest
   and Great Basin with a corresponding increase in fire-weather
   potential. At the same time, ridging over the Southeast will favor
   dry conditions and continued drought. Elevated to potentially
   critical fire-weather conditions are likely through the extended
   forecast period.

   ...Southwest and Great Basin...
   As southwesterly flow aloft increases, several days of dry and
   breezy conditions are likely across the Southwest and southern High
   Plains. While some rain has temporarily limited available fuels,
   fire-weather concerns will return as dry conditions settle back into
   the region. At least Elevated fire-weather conditions are expected
   each day across portions of AZ and NM through the weekend. Higher
   probabilities for critical conditions are likely needed in future
   outlooks, as forecast guidance continues to converge. This currently
   appears to be across parts of southern NM this weekend as the main
   trough ejects. However, model guidance varies largely on timing and
   intensity of the upper trough and returning surface moisture. This
   suggests limited predictability for higher probabilities at this
   time.

   Across the southern Great Basin, several days of dry and breezy
   conditions are likely late this week and into next week. Area fuels
   have shown a response to drying over the past several days, and are
   likely to dry further through the period. While some threat for
   elevated to low-end critical fire-weather conditions is possible,
   uncertainty remains rather large. This will preclude the addition of
   probabilities for now, but some fire-weather threat may evolve.

   ...Southeastern US...
   Fire weather concerns will remain across FL as a subtropical high to
   the east support relatively dry easterly winds through early next
   week. Marine influence will mitigate fire-weather concerns along the
   Atlantic Coast, but central and western Florida could see relatively
   low daytime relative humidity of 30-40 percent. Persistent drought
   and dry fuels will promote at least Elevated fire-weather threat 
   into the weekend.
