Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0337 PM CST Wed Nov 10 2021
Valid 121200Z - 181200Z
A large upper-level low will be centered over the Great Lakes at the
start of the period. This will bring cool and/or moist conditions to
much of the eastern CONUS. However, on the western periphery of this
trough, some dry and breezy conditions may develop across portions
of the central Plains beneath the stronger mid-level jet streak on
Friday. Fuels in this region are not critically dry, but some
high-end critical meteorological conditions are possible. Therefore,
conditions will need to be monitored for a potential elevated
delineation in later outlooks.
On Saturday and Sunday, some dry and breezy conditions are possible
in the southern High Plains in response to weak lee troughing.
However, winds are expected to stay mostly light and fuels are not
critically dry in the region. Therefore, no significant fire weather
concerns are anticipated.
Ridging is forecast to build over the western CONUS early next week
with a stronger mid-level trough forecast to replace this ridge
toward the middle of next week. This may bring some stronger winds
to portions of the Southwest and Southern High Plains, but there is
too much uncertainty with the evolution of the trough and fuels for
any highlights at this time.
