VALID 141700Z - 151200Z
..NO CRITICAL AREAS
..17Z UPDATE
MODESTLY DRY/BREEZY CONDITIONS REMAIN POSSIBLE SOUTH OF AN UPPER
TROUGH ADVANCING THROUGH THE NORTHERN GREAT BASIN THIS AFTERNOON.
HOWEVER, POOR OVERLAP OF THE LOWER HUMIDITY AND WINDS NEAR 15 MPH
WITH RECEPTIVE FUELS SHOULD KEEP ANY CONCERNS VERY LOCALIZED.
ELSEWHERE, HIGHER HUMIDITY AND RECENT PRECIPITATION SHOULD KEEP
FIRE-WEATHER CONCERNS LOW. NO CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE PRIOR
OUTLOOK.

..SYNOPSIS
A MID-LEVEL TROUGH WILL TRAVERSE THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND NORTHERN
ROCKIES AS ANOTHER UPPER TROUGH EJECTS INTO THE PLAINS TODAY.
MODESTLY DRY AND BREEZY CONDITIONS WILL RESULT ACROSS PORTIONS OF
THE GREAT BASIN. HOWEVER, THE MARGINALLY FAVORABLE LOW-LEVEL RH, AND
FUELS THAT ARE POORLY RECEPTIVE TO WILDFIRE SPREAD, SUGGEST THAT THE
CHANCES FOR SIGNIFICANT WILDFIRE IGNITION AND GROWTH ARE RELATIVELY
LOW. THE LIFTING OF A BUOYANT AIRMASS AHEAD OF THE WESTERN UPPER
TROUGH WILL SUPPORT SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ACROSS
PORTIONS OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST INTO THE NORTHERN ROCKIES.
HOWEVER, FUELS DO NOT APPEAR DRY ENOUGH FOR ROBUST LIGHTNING
IGNITIONS TO WARRANT ANY DRY THUNDERSTORM HIGHLIGHTS.
