U.S. Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook

   ZCZC SPCFWDDY1 ALL
   FNUS21 KWNS 081624

   Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1024 AM CST Sun Nov 08 2026

   Valid 081700Z - 091200Z

   ...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

   Lingering offshore flow across southern CA will promote localized
   corridors of east-northeast winds of 10-15 mph with gusts
   approaching 30 mph through the morning hours. Relaxing offshore
   pressure gradients through this afternoon will translate to lighter
   winds overall and allow at least a temporary intrusion of a marine
   influenced air mass along coastal areas. Although inland afternoon
   RH in the 15-20% is expected, the diminishing winds and marginal
   fuels will limit broader fire weather concerns for today.

   .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1135 PM CST Sat Nov 07 2026/

   ...Synopsis...
   No fire-weather highlights are forecast for today, with much of the
   CONUS characterized by unreceptive fuels owing to recent
   precipitation. Some portions of the southern and central Appalachian
   Mountains are drier than normal, but wind and relative humidity will
   not reach Elevated criteria. Portions of the Great Lakes into
   western New York will experience 15-20 MPH gusts as a cold front
   progresses southeastward out of the Great Lakes, but relative
   humidity is not forecast to reach Elevated criteria.

   Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0125 PM CST Sun Nov 08 2026

   Valid 091200Z - 101200Z

   ...NO CRITICAL AREAS...

   Fire weather concerns will remain low for D2/Monday across the
   contiguous U.S. Please see previous discussion for more details.

   ..Williams.. 11/08/2026

   .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1136 PM CST Sat Nov 07 2026/

   ...Synopsis...
   No fire-weather highlights are forecast for Monday owing to
   generally unreceptive fuels from recent rainfall and cooler
   conditions. Some prefrontal dry conditions could materialize across
   portions of the Southern and Central Great Plains, but winds are
   forecast to remain subdued with gusts of 10-15 MPH due to a weak
   surface pressure gradient.


U.S. Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook


   ZCZC SPCFWDD38 ALL
   FNUS28 KWNS 082135

   Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0335 PM CST Sun Nov 08 2026

   Valid 101200Z - 161200Z

   ...Synopsis...
   An increasingly amplified upper ridge is expected to evolve across
   the Intermountain West through the midweek while deeper troughing
   begins to envelop much of the eastern U.S. An embedded mid-level
   short wave and associated jet streak shift into the northern Plains
   on Day 3/Tuesday while a related surface trough deepens over the
   Dakotas. Dry west/northwest post-frontal flow in the wake of the low
   will impact portions of southeastern WY and northeastern CO but a
   muted fuelscape should mitigate the fire weather threat. Above
   normal temperatures and dry conditions under the building ridge are
   expected across the Intermountain West but absence of stronger winds
   and marginal fuel conditions should limit fire weather concerns at
   least through Day 5/Thursday. Lee-side troughing reemerges across
   the central/northern High Plains Days 6-7/Friday-Saturday as the
   upper ridge begins to break down. This could usher in stronger,
   downslope enhanced winds into southern/eastern WY but expected
   seasonable fuel conditions (ERCs in the 50-60th percentile) should
   moderate these potential fire weather impacts. 

   Farther east, a dry, post-frontal wind event is possible across the
   Southeast beginning Day 5/Thursday and lasting through Day
   7/Saturday as a strengthening surface low moves from the Ohio River
   Valley into New England. Uncertainty in precipitation distribution
   associated with the front prior to the onset of north/northwest flow
   introduces some predictability challenges in terms of future fuel
   receptiveness. This region will be watched closely for future
   introduction of critical probabilities in subsequent outlooks.
