DAY 3-8 FIRE WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0230 AM CDT SAT JUL 04 2009
VALID 061200Z - 121200Z
...DISCUSSION...
MODEL GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BECOME
ESTABLISHED OVER THE PAC COAST BY MONDAY DAY 3...AND PERSIST THROUGH
AT LEAST WEDNESDAY DAY 5. THIS WILL RESULT IN STRENGTHENING UPPER
LEVEL WSWLY FLOW OVERSPREADING MUCH OF THE INTERMOUNTAIN
WEST...WHERE A RESERVOIR OF HEAT AND LOW HUMIDITY WILL GRADUALLY
BUILD WITH TIME. AHEAD OF THE UPPER TROUGH...AN AREA OF SURFACE LOW
PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER THE NRN AND CENTRAL HIGH
PLAINS...WITH A COLD FRONT LIKELY EXTENDING WWD ACROSS THE NRN
ROCKIES TOWARD THE PAC NW. THOUGH THE TIMING IS STILL IN
QUESTION...LOW AMPLITUDE SHORTWAVE TROUGHS ARE FORECAST TO EJECT ENE
FROM THE MAIN WRN TROUGH...AND WILL SERVE TO ENHANCE LOW LEVEL
WINDS. GIVEN THE EXPECTED HEAT AND LOW HUMIDITY...THE POTENTIAL WILL
EXIST FOR REGIONAL CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS OVER PORTIONS OF
THE GREAT BASIN/INTERMOUNTAIN W/DESERT SW WHERE FAVORABLY JUXTAPOSED
WITH STRONG/SUSTAINED WINDS. HOWEVER...PREDICTABILITY IS TOO LOW AT
THIS POINT TO ASSIGN OUTLOOK AREAS.
