VALID 041200Z - 051200Z
...NO CRITICAL AREAS...
...SYNOPSIS...
A SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS IS FORECAST TO PHASE WITH
A CLOSED UPPER LOW OVER QUEBEC. AS THIS HAPPENS...A SURFACE LOW WILL
BECOME SITUATED OVER THE MID MS VALLEY...WITH A COLD FRONT EXTENDING
SSW INTO THE SRN PLAINS...AND A WARM FRONT/QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT
LOCATED ACROSS THE SERN CONUS. AFTERNOON HUMIDITY VALUES WILL LIKELY
FALL INTO THE 30S OVER PORTIONS OF GA/AL/NRN FL...BUT LIGHT WINDS
WILL PRECLUDE CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS FROM DEVELOPING.
OTHERWISE...THUNDERSTORMS CAN BE EXPECTED WITH THE PLAINS FRONTAL
BOUNDARY...AS WELL AS MUCH OF THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST. AN UPPER LEVEL
RIDGE IS ALSO FORECAST TO BUILD FROM THE DESERT SW INTO THE PAC NW.
HOT TEMPERATURES AND LOW RH WILL RESIDE BENEATH THE RIDGE...WHICH
WILL CERTAINLY LEAD TO ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS...BUT A LACK
OF STRONG SUSTAINED WINDS WILL PRECLUDE CRITICAL CONDITIONS.
