Administrators NorthGeorgiaWX Posted April 21 Administrators Share Posted April 21 SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0414 PM CDT Sun Apr 21 2024 Valid 231200Z - 291200Z Upper-level ridging over the Plains will promote relatively quiescent fire weather conditions during the middle of the week. By Thursday into the weekend though, a series of mid-level troughs will eject into the southern Plains, supporting the development of multiple surface cyclones and accompanying eastward surges of a dryline over the southern High Plains each day. In the post-dryline environment, Critical overlapping surface westerly winds and RH are expected, with guidance consensus showing the best chance at such conditions occurring along the CO/KS/TX/NM border areas by Thursday-Saturday afternoon peak heating. Here, 70 percent critical probabilities have been introduced for Days 5-7 (Thursday-Saturday), though Critical fire weather concerns may persist into early next week. Higher Critical probabilities may be needed for Sunday and perhaps beyond over the southern High Plains if guidance consensus shows the continued critically dry and windy conditions with any consistency. ..Squitieri.. 04/21/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
