Administrators NorthGeorgiaWX Posted April 15 Administrators Share Posted April 15 SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0204 AM CDT Mon Apr 15 2024 Valid 161200Z - 171200Z ...Synopsis... As the upper low ejects eastward over the Plains and into the Midwest, strong flow aloft will gradually weaken from west to east. The associated surface low and trailing front/dryline will move eastward as a secondary cold front moves in from the north. Gusty winds and low humidity will remain possible over parts of the southern and central Plains. However, the duration and coverage of critical conditions is uncertain. ...Southern High Plains to the Texas Big Bend... As the strong upper low lifts away to the northeast early D2/Tuesday, winds aloft will slowly diminish across the southern High Plains through the day. Still, downslope west/northwesterly flow will favor dry and warm surface conditions over much of eastern NM and west TX. Surface wind gusts of 15-20 mph are expected through part of the day along with RH below 20%. While not overly robust, a few hours of elevated to locally critical fire-weather conditions still appear likely given widespread dry fuels. Localized fire-weather conditions may also briefly develop farther east into portions of central/eastern KS Tuesday afternoon. Gusty winds and lower humidity will remain possible, ahead of the secondary cold front moving south. However, the limited duration and uncertainty on precipitation from the previous day suggest this threat will be brief and localized. ..Lyons.. 04/15/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
