   ...Synopsis...
   Fire weather concerns are expected to remain low on D2/Saturday. A
   cold front will bring cooler conditions and increasing relative
   humidity across the Northern High Plains. Breezy northeast winds
   will overlap dry fuels across portions of southern Georgia Saturday
   afternoon. Current forecast guidance indicates that afternoon RHs
   will struggle to fall below 40-45% where winds are anticipated to be
   the strongest (10-15 mph), precluding the need for any drawn areas.

   Valid 241200Z - 301200Z

   An upper-level high will continue nudging eastward from central into
   eastern portions of the CONUS ahead of a significant trough
   impacting the West. This pattern will continue near-normal
   temperatures amid dry conditions over much of the Southeast US.
   Vegetation in this area will become increasingly vulnerable to
   burning, especially across the southern Appalachian Mountains and
   the lower Mississippi River Valley, where ERCs are forecast to reach
   the 90-95th percentiles. While generally weak winds will limit the
   overall fire threat over much of the Southeast, breezy northeast
   winds over dry fuels of southern Georgia on Day 3/Saturday are worth
   noting. However, current forecast guidance indicates that afternoon
   RHs on Day 3/Saturday will struggle to fall below 40-45% where winds
   are anticipated to be the strongest (10-15 mph), precluding the need
   for any drawn areas.

   Meanwhile, a significant trough will bring widespread precipitation
   to much of the western US preceding and lingering into Day
   3/Saturday. This trough will then continue northeastward across the
   central Plains before lifting into the Great Lakes region by
   mid-next-week. This progression is likely to provide significant
   rainfall to portions of the central Plains while once again leaving
   portions of the northern High Plains (over parts of Wyoming and
   eastern Montana) with little to no accumulation. While no major fire
   weather concerns are on the horizon Day 3/Saturday or beyond, this
   area will be watched closely should additional wind events
   materialize.
