   Valid 091200Z - 101200Z

   ...Synopsis...
   A mid-level trough will amplify over the central U.S., with an
   embedded 500 mb speed max poised to overspread the central Plains
   tomorrow (Wednesday). As surface high pressure builds over the
   northern Rockies, downslope flow across the central High Plains will
   promote another day of dry/windy conditions. 15-25 mph sustained
   westerly surface flow amid 20 percent RH will overspread dry fuels,
   warranting the introduction of Elevated highlights. Elsewhere across
   the central and southern High Plains, modestly dry and breezy
   conditions may develop and overspread fuels that have recently
   experienced appreciable precipitation accumulations, with no fire
   weather highlights introduced at this time.

   Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0459 PM CDT Mon Apr 07 2025

   Valid 091200Z - 151200Z

   An amplifying upper-level wave pattern is expected to develop across
   the U.S. beginning day 3/Wednesday with broad ridging over the West
   and a deepening trough, cold front intrusion and attendant
   precipitation across the eastern U.S. Extended model guidance shows
   another upper trough entering the Intermountain West which could
   introduce a MULT day fire weather threat to portions of the Desert
   Southwest starting on Day 6/Saturday, shifting eastward into the
   High Plains by Day 7/Sunday.

   ...Day 3/Wednesday: Central High Plains...
   An area of 40 percent probability for Critical fire weather
   conditions including northwest winds of 25 to 35 mph and daytime
   relative humidity in the 15 to 20 percent range was introduced into
   portions of southeastern Wyoming, northeastern Colorado and western
   Nebraska. This is in response to accelerating northwest surface flow
   from a strengthening mid-level jet translating over the Central
   Rockies and dry fuels.

   ...Day 6/Saturday - Day 7/Sunday: Desert Southwest and High
   Plains...
   Upper-level ridging over the western U.S. will bring an extended
   period of warm and above normal temperatures to the region aiding in
   drying of fuels. An upper-level trough and associated induced
   stronger surface wind field combined with a very dry air mass could
   bring Elevated to Critical fire weather risks to portions of the
   Desert Southwest and High Plains over the weekend (Day 6/Day 7).
   However, some inter-model inconsistencies combined with expected sub
   prime fuel dryness precludes introduction of Critical probabilities
   at this time.
