   ...Synopsis...
   Fire weather concerns will be negligible on D2/Friday. A surface
   high will build in across the central US, further reinforcing the
   cold arctic air southward into the Plains and Missouri/Mississippi
   River Valleys. This pattern will favor generally light winds and
   with the very cold air mass will keep fire concerns low across the
   CONUS.

   Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook

   0252 PM CST Wed Jan 28 2026

   Valid 301200Z - 051200Z

   A series of mid-level shortwave troughs will cross the northern
   Plains toward the southeast Atlantic Coastline through the middle of
   next week as they traverse a broader northwesterly upper flow
   regime. As a result, a series of surface high pressure surges will
   reinforce a near to sub-freezing airmass over much of the CONUS,
   particularly from the Mississippi River and points east, limiting
   wildfire spread concerns over most locales. Dry and occasionally
   breezy conditions may develop on occasion over portions of the
   Florida Peninsula and central/southern High Plains. However, the
   anticipated conditions would likely only support localized wildfire
   spread, precluding Critical probabilities this outlook.
