VALID 291700Z - 301200Z
..17Z UPDATE
NO MAJOR CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE PRIOR OUTLOOK. ISOLATED DRY
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN OF NORTHERN CA,
OR AND WESTERN ID THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. A FEW OF THESE STORMS
ARE LIKELY TO POSE A RISK FOR LIGHTNING IGNITIONS WITHIN DRY FUELS.
A FEW STORMS MY PERSIST OVERNIGHT ACROSS EASTERN OR WITH A CONTINUED
THREAT FOR OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING STRIKES. WILL MAINTAIN THE ISODRYT
HIGHLIGHTS WITH LITTLE CHANGE.
..SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN
A FEW HOURS OF DRY AND BREEZY CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON
ACROSS PARTS OF SOUTHERN NV AND FAR SOUTHWESTERN UT. ENHANCED
MID-LEVEL FLOW WILL OVERSPREAD DRIER PARTS OF THE GREAT BASIN.
ISOLATED WIND GUSTS OF 15 MPH AND RH BELOW 15% COULD SUPPORT SOME
LOCALLY ELEVATED FIRE-WEATHER POTENTIAL THIS AFTERNOON. THOUGH THE
LACK OF STRONGER WINDS SUGGESTS THIS THREAT WILL REMAIN ISOLATED.
