   Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0325 PM CST Mon Jan 24 2022

   Valid 261200Z - 011200Z

   Fire weather potential may increase later this week and into the
   weekend. Long-range ensembles continue to show a rather stagnant
   upper-air regime with broad troughing across the eastern CONUS and
   ridging across the West. This will maintain dry conditions across
   the southwestern U.S. with scattered precipitation chances along and
   east of the Rockies. While precipitation and cooler temperatures
   will moderate fire weather concerns for most locations, a
   downslope-flow regime in the wake of a lee trough may support at
   least low-end fire weather concerns for parts of the southern High
   Plains on D6/Saturday. This scenario has been depicted over the past
   24-48 hours in a few ensemble members, and probabilities for
   elevated to critical wind/RH combinations continue to increase in
   recent runs. Although guidance has trended towards increasing fire
   weather potential, rain/snow chances through D3/Wednesday across the
   region may moisten currently dry fuels.
