DAY 2 FIRE WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0135 AM CDT FRI MAY 23 2025
VALID 241200Z - 251200Z
..SYNOPSIS
A MID-LEVEL WAVE WILL SHIFT ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST ON SATURDAY.
ENHANCED MID-LEVEL FLOW WILL LARGELY PASS OVERNIGHT D1/FRIDAY INTO
D2/SATURDAY, WITH RELAXING PRESSURE GRADIENTS THROUGH THE DAY.
THOUGH AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITY WILL REMAIN LOW (AROUND 10
PERCENT), THIS RELAXING GRADIENT WILL KEEP WINDS LARGELY BELOW
CRITICAL VALUES. IN ADDITION, AN INCREASE IN MID-LEVEL CLOUD COVER
IS EXPECTED WHICH MAY LIMIT MIXING. IN MORE FAVORED DOWNSLOPE
REGIONS, LOCALLY STRONGER WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE AND SUPPORT PERIODS
OF LOCALIZED CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER. OVERALL, THE BROAD ELEVATED
DELINEATION WAS MAINTAINED WHERE HIGHEST CONFIDENCE IN SUSTAINED
ELEVATED CONDITIONS WERE EXPECTED ACROSS EASTERN ARIZONA INTO
SOUTHEASTERN UTAH AND ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL/WESTERN NEW MEXICO.
