Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0153 AM CST Wed Jan 10 2024

Valid 111200Z - 121200Z

...Synopsis...
A strong upper-level trough will intensify over the
Southwest/northern Mexico on Thursday before quickly ejecting into
the southern Plains by Friday morning. Strong southwesterly flow
aloft will overspread the southern Plains as a surface lee cyclone
deepens over TX/OK. To the southwest of the low, very strong surface
winds and low humidity are expected over parts of the TX Trans Pecos
and Big Bend region.

...Texas Trans-Pecos...
As the surface low intensifies through Thursday, low-level westerly
winds will quickly increase across parts of southern NM and
southwest TX. Dry and windy conditions, with gusts to 30-40 mph and
RH below 20%, are expected to support a few hours of meteorological
critical conditions in the Trans-Pecos. While so far fuel dryness
has remained limited, several days of preceding dry/windy conditions
suggest fine fuels may be dry enough to support some fire spread.
With the expected overlap of gusty winds, low humidity and some
drying of fuels, elevated fire-weather conditions are possible.
