   ...Synopsis...
   Fire weather concerns are expected to be limited for Wednesday
   across the country. The upper low currently over western Arizona
   will shift into the southern Plains through Wednesday evening.
   Widespread rain chances will overspread the southern Plains and
   Southwest regions through the day limiting fire weather potential
   for most areas. One exception is West Texas and south-central NM
   where rainfall should be limited. While breezy southwest winds are
   likely, recent guidance suggests the probability of reaching
   elevated RH thresholds is low. Elsewhere across the country, cool
   temperatures, weak winds, and/or recent rain/snowfall preclude fire
   weather concerns.

   Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0355 PM CST Tue Jan 28 2025

   Valid 301200Z - 051200Z

   Fire weather concerns will remain low in the early part of the
   extended forecast. An upper-low that has remained over the western
   US will eject across the southern Rockies into the Plains
   D2/Wednesday through D3/Thursday, bringing windy conditions but also
   chances for precipitation across the central/southern Plains. A
   surface cyclone will develop across the southern Plains D3/Thursday,
   with strengthening of a lee trough across the High Plains. This
   pattern will favor a period of elevated fire-weather conditions,
   particularly across southwestern and western Texas where freeze
   cured grasses may support risk for fire spread. Elsewhere, marginal
   fuels and chances for additional precipitation should limit the
   potential for critical conditions.

   Zonal flow behind this departing system will favor periods of
   enhanced westerly flow overspreading the southern Rockies through
   the weekend, with lee troughing redeveloping D5/Saturday and
   D6/Sunday. This will bring potential warm/dry downslope flow across
   portions of western Texas into the Oklahoma Panhandle. Some portion
   of this region will have seen recent rainfall. However, Elevated to
   locally Critical fire-weather concerns will be possible across far
   western Texas where less precipitation was received. For now,
   confidence is low in highlighting any specific areas.
