Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook  

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

0100 AM CST Fri Mar 08 2024



Valid 081200Z - 091200Z



...Synopsis...

A mid to upper-level trough will eject eastward across the

Mississippi River Valley today as a belt of enhanced mid-level west

southwesterly flow extends across the Rio Grande northeastward into

the Ohio River Valley. An associated surface low will track

northeastward across the southeast, as a surface high builds in

across the central and southern High Plains. Northwesterly gradients

between these two features will support gusty surface winds across

portions of western and southern Texas from Big Bend southward into

the Rio Grande Valley. Within this region, afternoon humidity as low

as 15-20 percent will overlap with sustained winds at 15-20 mph. An

Elevated delineation was maintained to cover the threat with this

outlook.
