U.S. Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook

   ZCZC SPCFWDDY1 ALL
   FNUS21 KWNS 140657

   Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1257 AM CST Sat Nov 14 2026

   Valid 141200Z - 151200Z

   ...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

   ...Synopsis...
   Deep, longwave troughing will persist across much of the eastern
   U.S. today as negatively tilted upper troughing progresses eastward
   from the Intermountain West into the central/southern Plains.
   Combined with another robust upper trough that will approach the
   Pacific Northwest coastline, this will continue to support chances
   for precipitation across parts of the Northeast and much of the
   West, with rain chances also spreading into the southern/central
   Plains. Meanwhile, surface high pressure over the upper/mid
   Mississippi Valley will slide farther east/southeast into the lower
   Ohio Valley, with cooler and drier conditions continuing across much
   of the Southeast. While minimum RH values in the 25-35% range are
   forecast across portions of the Southeast atop modestly dry fuels,
   generally light surface winds (~10 mph or less) will suppress fire
   weather concerns today.

U.S. Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook


   ZCZC SPCFWDDY2 ALL
   FNUS22 KWNS 140700

   Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0100 AM CST Sat Nov 14 2026

   Valid 151200Z - 161200Z

   ...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

   ...Synopsis...
   Deep, longwave troughing over the eastern U.S. will begin to depart
   offshore on D2/Sunday as surface high pressure over the Midwest
   continues to bring cooler/drier conditions to portions of the
   Southeast. Elsewhere, a robust upper trough approaching the Pacific
   Northwest will bring additional chances for rain to parts of the
   West Coast, with a separate area of upper troughing also bringing
   rain chances to portions of the southern Plains/lower Mississippi
   Valley. While drier conditions are expected to continue across
   portions of the Southeast (minimum RH values in the 20-35% range),
   broad fire weather concerns are not anticipated as winds are
   forecast to remain light (generally less than 10 mph).

U.S. Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook


   ZCZC SPCFWDD38 ALL
   FNUS28 KWNS 132143

   Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0343 PM CST Fri Nov 13 2026

   Valid 151200Z - 211200Z

   ...Synopsis...
   An upper-level trough will gradually exit the East Coast by early
   next week as broader ridging shifts into the north-central U.S. and
   Canadian Prairies. Surface high pressure along with a period of
   prolonged dry conditions and cooler temperatures will settle into
   much of the Southeastern U.S. in the wake of the exiting trough. Dry
   fuels should be maintained across the region but light winds will
   tend to limit a greater fire weather threat through the middle of
   next week across the Southeast and mid/lower MS River Valley.

   An active troughing pattern will evolve across much of the western
   U.S. through the forecast period, shifting deeper Pacific moisture
   inland. This should subdue fire weather concerns across the
   Intermountain West through next week. Meanwhile, portions of the
   northern and central Plains should remain dry into Day 5/Tuesday.
   Extended guidance suggests a stronger shortwave trough ejecting east
   of the Rockies on Day 6/Wednesday, potentially promoting enhanced
   downslope winds and drying over the central High Plains. Ambiguity
   in the timing of the trough ejection and uncertainty in preceding
   precipitation on Day 2/Saturday (and potential for additional
   precipitation with the stronger trough arrival) limits
   predictability of the fire weather threat for the central High
   Plains on Day 6/Wednesday.
