...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM MDT/11 AM CDT/ THIS
MORNING TO MIDNIGHT MDT/1 AM CDT/ TONIGHT...
DISCUSSION
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE MOST LIKELY TO
OCCUR WEST OF A DRY LINE WHICH WILL SET UP IN NORTHEAST COLORADO
BY LATE THIS MORNING AND PERHAPS MAKE IT AS FAR EAST AS HIGHWAY 27
BY 3 PM MDT. EAST OF THE DRY LINE FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL BE MORE
MARGINAL AS FAR AS MEETING 15% CRITERIA FOR RELATIVE HUMIDITY, BUT WIND
GUSTS OF 25 TO 35 MPH WILL BE COMMON, AND THERE IS AT LEAST SOME RISK FOR
DRY LIGHTNING AS WELL. A COLD FRONT WILL SHIFT WINDS TO THE NORTHWEST
OVERNIGHT AND INTO THURSDAY MORNING.
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE ON THURSDAY. RELATIVE
HUMIDITY WILL FALL TO AROUND 10% IN ALL OF THE AREA, BUT WINDS WILL BE
STRONGEST IN THE MORNING BEHIND THE COLD FRONT, DIMINISHING IN THE AFTERNOON.
FOR THIS REASON, THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY IF THE WINDS WILL BE
STRONG ENOUGH FOR CRITICAL CONDITIONS DURING THE AFTERNOON WHEN HUMIDITY
WILL BE LOWEST. HOWEVER, THERE IS ALSO A RISK FOR DRY LIGHTNING IN THE
AFTERNOON AS WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP.
