Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0351 PM CDT Mon Nov 01 2021
Valid 031200Z - 091200Z
Mid-level ridging will dominate the western CONUS Days
3-4/Wednesday-Thursday, before the first in a series of mid-level
troughs traverses the northern Rockies Day 5/Friday. From Friday
through Day 8/Monday, embedded mid-level impulses tracking across
the northwest/north-central CONUS will reinforce surface
lee-troughing across the High Plains, promoting brief instances of
localized Elevated-equivalent surface conditions atop fuels that are
modestly receptive (at best) to wildfire spread.
Dry and breezy westerly surface flow is expected across portions of
central into eastern Montana Day 5/Friday, followed by dry/breezy
surface conditions across the central/southern High Plains Days
6-8/Saturday-Monday. Each day, some guidance consensus exists
regarding the presence of near-critical to critical RH across the
High Plains by peak afternoon heating. However, the stronger surface
winds appear too localized for the inclusion of Critical
probabilities, especially when considering the overall poor
receptiveness of fuels to fire spread.
