..SYNOPSIS
A BROAD UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH WILL SHIFT INTO THE GREAT LAKES WHILE
LINGERING BUT REDUCED WEST/NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT REMAINS OVER THE
NORTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS. LOCALIZED ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS
ARE EXPECTED ACROSS CENTRAL WY MAINLY IN THE LEE OF LARGER MOUNTAIN
RANGES AS WELL AS SOUTHERN WY. A FAVORABLE DOWNSLOPE DRYING
ENVIRONMENT WILL PERSIST OVER MUCH OF CENTRAL/EASTERN WY, ALTHOUGH
DIMINISHED WEST/NORTHWEST BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW SHOULD LIMIT A BROADER
FIRE WEATHER THREAT FOR D2/WEDNESDAY. A WARMING AND DRYING TREND
WILL CONTINUE ACROSS MUCH OF THE WESTERN U.S. AS AN UPPER RIDGE
BUILDS INTO THE SOUTHWEST. HOWEVER, WEAK SURFACE FLOW AND A
MITIGATED FUEL ENVIRONMENT SHOULD LIMIT FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS.
