   CORRECTED FOR WORDING

   A split upper-flow regime is expected to materialize next week after
   a broad mid-level trough across the East Coast ejects into the
   Atlantic. A series of mid-level troughs will traverse the northern
   and eastern U.S. while a cut-off upper low across the Southwest
   evolves into a series of open waves which will traverse the southern
   Plains. The surface mass response will be an initial surge of
   widespread high pressure across much of the CONUS early next week,
   followed by surface lee-troughing across the Plains states, with
   rapid surface low development in the Upper Mississippi Valley
   towards the end of the week. As such, cool or moist surface
   conditions are expected to hinder widespread significant
   wildfire-spread potential across much of the CONUS. One brief
   exception may be the central High Plains Day 4/Tuesday, where the
   onset of surface lee troughing may encourage modestly dry and breezy
   surface conditions. However, guidance consensus suggests that RH
   will be too high to warrant Critical probabilities this outlook,
   though Elevated highlights are possible when Tuesday reaches the
   Days 1-2 period.
