DAY 2 FIRE WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0235 PM CDT THU SEP 11 2025
VALID 121200Z - 131200Z
..NO CRITICAL AREAS
MID-LEVEL FLOW AHEAD OF AN UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE WESTERN U.S.
WILL BECOME MORE DIFFUSE THROUGH THE DAY 2 PERIOD. THIS WILL AID IN
REDUCING DAYTIME SURFACE WINDS ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHWEST AND
IN PARTICULAR UTAH. LOCALLY ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE
STILL EXPECTED ACROSS NORTHWESTERN ARIZONA AND SOUTHERN UTAH FRIDAY
WITH SOUTHWEST WINDS OF UP TO 15 MPH AND RELATIVE HUMIDITY FALLING
TO AROUND 15% BY THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER, FUEL DRYNESS IS LACKING TO
ALLOW FOR SIGNIFICANT WILDFIRE SPREAD.

/ISSUED 0118 AM CDT THU SEP 11 2025/
..SYNOPSIS
THE WESTERN TROUGH WILL BROADEN AND THE MID-LEVEL JET WILL LOSE
DEFINITION ON FRIDAY. THOUGH NOT OVERLY INTENSE, A SURFACE LOW WILL
MOVE INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND HELP PROMOTE WINDIER CONDITIONS FOR
PARTS OF THE CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PLAINS. RECENT RAINFALL AND GENERALLY
UNRECEPTIVE FUELS WILL MEAN VERY MINIMAL FIRE RISK. DRY CONDITIONS
WILL PERSIST IN PARTS OF THE GREAT BASIN AND SOUTHWEST, BUT WINDS
WILL BE WEAKER THAN PREVIOUS DAYS.
