VALID 301200Z - 311200Z
..NO CRITICAL AREAS
..SYNOPSIS
A MID-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE CENTRAL ROCKIES AT THE START OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD WILL SLOWLY LIFT NORTH TOWARD THE NORTHERN ROCKIES
DURING THE FORECAST PERIOD. THIS WILL PLACE MUCH OF THE SOUTHWEST
INTO CENTRAL US IN BROAD SOUTHWEST FLOW, BETWEEN A PACIFIC NORTHWEST
TROUGH AND A GULF MID-LEVEL RIDGE.
DESPITE THE FAVORABLE MID-LEVEL PATTERN CONFIGURATION FOR FIRE
WEATHER CONCERNS, THE OVERALL FLOW APPEARS TOO WEAK ACROSS AREAS
WITH RECEPTIVE FUELS AND FUELS APPEAR TO BE UNRECEPTIVE ACROSS AREAS
WITH STRONGER FLOW. THUS, LARGE-SCALE FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS LOOK TO
BE MINIMAL ACROSS THE CONUS ON DAY-2/SATURDAY.
