Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0255 AM CDT Sun Apr 30 2017 Valid 011200Z - 021200Z ...Synopsis... An upper low initially over the Upper Midwest is forecast to continue moving northeastward across the Great Lakes region on Day 2/Monday, and should eventually reach southern Canada by the end of the period. A low-amplitude shortwave trough should move southeastward across the Great Basin and Southwest, with modestly enhanced northwesterly mid-level winds attendant to this feature. At the surface, a dry post-frontal airmass will remain across the Southwest and southern High Plains. ...Portions of the Southwest and Southern High Plains... Sustained surface winds of 15-20 mph may develop Monday afternoon across parts of eastern AZ into western/southern NM and far west TX as diurnal mixing of modestly enhanced winds aloft occurs. RH values will likely fall into the 7-15% range with diurnal heating encouraging temperatures to warm generally into the 70s and 80s. These meteorological conditions along with dry fuels support an elevated fire weather designation across this region. The lack of stronger low and mid-level flow should tend to limit sustained surface winds in excess of 20 mph, preventing critical delineation. ..Gleason.. 04/30/2017 ...Please see http://ift.tt/2i2um2s for graphic product...Read more
