A SECOND SUBSTANTIAL UPPER DISTURBANCE IN AS MANY DAYS WILL MOVE EWD OVER THE NRN ROCKIES/PACIFIC NW REGIONS ON D3. STRONG SWLY FLOW ALOFT WILL OVERSPREAD MUCH OF THE NRN ROCKIES/PARTS OF THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST REGIONS. THERE IS SOME INDICATION ISOLATED DRY TSTMS MAY FORM AS WELL OVER LOCALIZED AREAS. CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING FOR A POSSIBLE FIRE WEATHER EVENT OVER PARTS OF THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST/NRN ROCKIES REGION D3...BUT CONFIDENCE IS TOO LOW TO WARRANT A CRITICAL AREA ATTM. A PERSISTENT OVERALL PATTERN WITH A MEAN UPPER TROUGH OVER THE PACIFIC NW/NRN ROCKIES APPEARS TO EXIST FOR D4-D5 BEFORE PREDICTABILITY CONCERNS AND LARGE MODEL VARIABILITY DEVELOP. GREATER UNCERTAINTY WITH THE PATTERN D4-D5 RESULTING IN POTENTIAL FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS INVOKES A RESTRAINED MENTION FOR FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL BEYOND D3. LIMITED PREDICTABILITY PRECLUDES ANY OUTLOOK AREAS AT THIS TIME. ..SMITH.. 07/31/2008 ...PLEASE SEE WWW.SPC.NOAA.GOV/FIRE FOR GRAPHIC PRODUCT... $$ CLICK TO GET FNUS38 KWNS PFWF38 FIRE WEATHER OUTLOOK DAY 3-8 AREAL OUTLINE PRODUCT
