...Synopsis...
The overall synoptic pattern will be characterized by a persistent
longwave trough over the East and mid/upper ridging over the
Intermountain West. A mid-level disturbance initially just west of
the central California coast will migrate inland and weaken
throughout the forecast period as well.
At the surface, cold temperatures will continue across much of the
central and eastern CONUS in response to an expansive area of high
pressure along the Mississippi River Valley and a strengthening low
just off the East Coast. Meanwhile, weak onshore flow will persist
in California.
The overall pattern suggests that large-scale fire weather
conditions will be minimal throughout the forecast period. No areas
are highlighted in the outlook for this reason.
