U.S. Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook

   ZCZC SPCFWDDY1 ALL
   FNUS21 KWNS 260548

   Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1248 AM CDT Thu Jun 26 2025

   Valid 261200Z - 271200Z

   ...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

   ...Synopsis...
   Fire weather concerns are expected to remain limited for today
   across the country. Widespread rainfall over the eastern two-thirds
   of the country will limit fuel status for most locations. West of
   the Rockies, dry conditions will continue with afternoon RH minimums
   in the teens expected. However, the strongest low/mid-level flow is
   expected to remain across the Pacific Northwest (where RH reductions
   won't be as pronounced) ahead of a low-amplitude mid-level trough.
   Localized elevated conditions may materialize across portions of
   southern ID and northern NV where the overlap of dry conditions,
   receptive fuels, and modest surface winds (15-20 mph) is most
   probable. Latest high-res ensemble guidance generally shows a weak
   signal for widespread and/or persistent elevated conditions, which
   limits confidence in the overall fire weather threat.

U.S. Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook

   Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1249 AM CDT Thu Jun 26 2025

   Valid 271200Z - 281200Z

   ...Synopsis...
   Elevated fire weather conditions are expected across parts of
   central to southwest Wyoming Friday afternoon. Strengthening zonal
   flow over the northern Rockies will promote a more pronounced
   surface mass response across the northern High Plains on Friday
   compared to today/Thursday. Consequently, low-level winds will
   likely be slightly stronger across a broad swath of the eastern
   Great Basin and parts of the Four Corners region. In general, most
   locations from eastern NV into northern AZ, UT, southern ID, and WY
   will see breezy conditions with wind speeds generally in the mid
   teens. Across southwest to central WY, downslope flow into the WY
   Basin and in the lee of the Wind River Range will regionally augment
   surface winds to near 20 mph. Deep mixing will promote frequent
   gusts up to 25-30 mph by peak heating as RH values fall into the
   teens. Several hours of elevated conditions appear likely, and
   periods of critical conditions are possible. Fuels across much of WY
   are not as dry compared to locations southwest, but several hours of
   dry/windy conditions should promote adequate drying of dead finer
   fuels to support the fire weather concern. An expansion of the
   Elevated risk area appears possible if confidence in
   sustained/widespread 15+ mph winds increases across portions of the
   Great Basin/Four Corners region where fuels remain very dry.

U.S. Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook


   ZCZC SPCFWDD38 ALL
   FNUS28 KWNS 252155

   Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0455 PM CDT Wed Jun 25 2025

   Valid 271200Z - 031200Z

   ...Synopsis...
   A weak upper-level trough will move across the Pacific Northwest 
   Day 3/Friday into the Great Lakes by Day 6/Monday. Early next week,
   a ridge will strengthen across the Intermountain West bringing
   lighter surface winds but well above normal temperatures for much of
   the Western U.S. Weak troughing will remain off the West Coast, with
   potential for locally breezy conditions and mix of wet/dry
   thunderstorms.

   ...Day 3-4/Friday-Saturday...
   Generally weak upper flow with the western trough will promote
   lighter, mainly terrain driven winds across much of the
   Intermountain West and Southwest into early next week. A few hours
   of Elevated to locally Critical conditions will be possible across
   portions of the Columbia Basin into the Snake River Plain in Idaho
   D3/Friday and D4/Saturday.

   ...Day 5/Sunday - Day 7/Tuesday...
   A weak trough will push the western ridge eastward across the Divide
   and Rockies early next week. There is some potential for increasing
   winds but also moisture for thunderstorms across the Pacific
   Northwest and perhaps as far south and portions of the Sierra.
   Initially, a risk of dry thunderstorms will be possible across
   central Oregon into the Cascades. For now, confidence in moisture
   and position of the trough remains too low to include probabilities.
