U.S. Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook

   ZCZC SPCFWDDY1 ALL
   FNUS21 KWNS 130726

   Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0126 AM CST Fri Nov 13 2026

   Valid 131200Z - 141200Z

   ...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

   ...Synopsis...
   Deep, longwave troughing will remain positioned over the eastern
   U.S. today as negatively tilted upper-level troughing moves onshore
   across the West, bringing rain and snow to most of the West Coast
   and Intermountain West. Cooler, drier air will filter farther south
   across the eastern U.S. amid the continued upper troughing as a
   surface low departs the Northeast and high pressure builds slowly
   southeastward into the Midwest.

   ...Southeast...
   Dry and breezy, post-frontal conditions will continue across much of
   the Southeast today. While minimum RH values are forecast in the
   25-40% range (locally down to 20% across portions of the ArkLaTex
   and lower Mississippi Valley), winds are forecast to remain lighter
   than yesterday at 10-15 mph with a few gusts to around 20 mph
   possible. Thus, while locally elevated fire weather conditions are
   likely, weaker winds and a lack of overlap between elevated winds/RH
   and receptive fuels precludes the addition of Elevated highlights.

U.S. Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook


   ZCZC SPCFWDDY2 ALL
   FNUS22 KWNS 130727

   Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0127 AM CST Fri Nov 13 2026

   Valid 141200Z - 151200Z

   ...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

   ...Synopsis...
   Deep, longwave upper-level troughing will begin to gradually shift
   offshore of the East Coast on Day 2/Saturday as negatively tilted
   upper troughing progresses eastward from the Intermountain West
   toward the central Rockies/Great Plains and another robust upper
   trough approaches the Pacific Northwest. These upper-level features
   will continue to bring chances for precipitation to portions of the
   Rockies and Pacific Northwest, with rain chances also spreading into
   the southern Plains. At the surface, high pressure will remain
   positioned across the upper/mid Mississippi Valley, with cooler and
   drier conditions continuing across much of the Southeast. While dry
   conditions/fuels should be maintained across the Southeast and
   mid/lower Mississippi Valley, generally light surface winds are
   expected to limit the overall fire weather threat at this time.

U.S. Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook


   ZCZC SPCFWDD38 ALL
   FNUS28 KWNS 122126

   Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0326 PM CST Thu Nov 12 2026

   Valid 141200Z - 201200Z

   ...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
   Intermountain West as deeper Pacific moisture shifts inland and
   associated precipitation subdues fire weather concerns into next
   week. The northern Plains and portions of the central Plains should
   remain dry through early next week. A mid-level short wave trough
   pushes into the southern Plains should bringing widespread rainfall
   to the region over the weekend with rainfall amounts tapering off
   farther north across the central Plains. Model guidance consensus
   suggests a stronger trough ejecting into the central Plains on Day
   7/Wednesday which could promote enhanced downslope winds and drying
   over the central High Plains. Some uncertainty in the preceding
   precipitation event and potential for additional precipitation with
   the stronger trough arrival, limits predictability of the fire
   weather threat for the central High Plains on Day 7/Wednesday.
