####018001160#### FNUS21 KWNS 100740 FWDDY1 Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0140 AM CST Fri Jan 10 2025 Valid 101200Z - 111200Z ...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF FAR SOUTHERN COASTAL CALIFORNIA... ...Synopsis... A series of positively tilted mid-level troughs will progress southeastward across the western and central CONUS today, supporting the maintenance of surface high pressure across the Inter-mountain West. Dry offshore winds should continue off of the southern California coastline through at least the morning hours. However, the pressure gradient should diffuse through the day as the first in a series of mid-level troughs moves away from southern California. Elevated to Critical dry and windy conditions should be most prevalent during the morning, and will wane during the afternoon hours. The best chance for any Critical conditions (i.e. 20+ mph sustained offshore winds with 15 percent or less RH) will be across the San Jacinto to Laguna mountain ranges. ..Squitieri.. 01/10/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$ ####018001115#### FNUS22 KWNS 100741 FWDDY2 Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0141 AM CST Fri Jan 10 2025 Valid 111200Z - 121200Z ...Synopsis... A mid-level trough will rapidly traverse the West Coast as another upper trough impinges on the Mississippi Valley tomorrow (Saturday). A surface low will move across the Midwest in tandem with the Mississippi Valley upper trough, with secondary surface low development likely over the southern High Plains. Downslope flow is likely over eastern New Mexico into western Texas. However, questions remain regarding how low RH will dip by afternoon peak heating, precluding fire weather highlights this outlook. An upper trough traversing the West Coast will encourage some dry offshore flow across southern California. Though guidance differs on how dry the surface airmass will be, sustained offshore wind speeds may exceed 15 mph, especially in terrain-favored areas, warranting Elevated highlights. ..Squitieri.. 01/10/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
