Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0328 PM CDT Thu Nov 04 2021
Valid 061200Z - 121200Z
A mid-level trough will enter portions of the Pacific Northwest on
D3/Saturday, and remain quasi-stationary through D6/Tuesday. Some
amplification of the trough will occur during this period, with a
series of downstream short-wave troughs progressing through the
central/northern Rockies. Thereafter, the mid-level trough should
shift eastward into the central/northern Plains by D7/Wednesday,
with strong zonal/northwesterly mid-level flow entering the West in
its wake.
At the surface, southerly return flow should develop along the
southern High Plains, while a cold front enters the region by
D5/Monday. This front is forecast to stall as return flow redevelops
by D7/Wednesday. Somewhat marginally enhanced surface winds and
lowered RH may accompany these features, particularly on D4/Sunday
across portions of northeast New Mexico, that may eventually warrant
highlights for parts of the region. However, considerable
uncertainty still exists the aforementioned synoptic features, as
well as the receptiveness of fuels across the region, to introduce
any probabilities at this time.
