Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0408 PM CDT Wed Nov 03 2021
Valid 051200Z - 111200Z
A mid-level impulse embedded in broader cyclonic flow aloft will
traverse the northern Rockies Day 3/Friday, with a stronger upper
trough deepening across the interior West this weekend (Days 4-5).
As the second upper trough pivots the broader mid-level cyclonic
flow and ejects into the northern Plains, a third and more
progressive upper trough will advance eastward across the West into
the Plains Days 6-8/Monday-Wednesday. The result will be prolonged
surface lee-troughing across the High Plains, where periodic dry and
breezy conditions are likely.
The best chance for Elevated to locally Critical equivalent
conditions would be on Day 3/Friday across eastern Montana, and
nearly every day Days 4-8/Saturday-Wednesday across the southern
High Plains as stronger mid-level flow gradually overspreads the
south-central CONUS. However, considerable uncertainty remains this
outlook given the overall lack of guidance consensus and mediocre
receptiveness of fuels to fire spread, with no Critical
Probabilities introduced.
