Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

1230 PM CST Wed Feb 11 2026



Valid 121200Z - 131200Z



...NO CRITICAL AREAS...



...19z Update...

As mentioned in the previous discussion, recent guidance has trended

towards higher RH values of 20-25 percent across eastern New Mexico

and the Texas Panhandle Thursday afternoon. As such, fire weather

highlights were withheld. However, westerly surface winds of 15-20

mph atop dry fuels could support locally elevated fire weather

conditions. Elsewhere, fire weather concerns are minimal.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1154 PM CST Tue Feb 10 2026/



...Synopsis...

An upper ridge will persist across the Plains States while a

mid-level trough ejects into the Atlantic, and another upper trough

traverses the Desert Southwest tomorrow (Thursday). Similar to Day

1, surface high pressure and associated cooler conditions should

prevail from the Mississippi River to the East Coast, while moist

southerly flow from the Gulf continues over the Plains. As such,

another day of relatively quiescent fire weather conditions is in

store for the CONUS.



Some consideration was given to the addition of Elevated highlights

along the northeast New Mexico/northern Texas Panhandle border given

relatively dry downslope flow expected tomorrow afternoon. However,

RH has trended higher in some of the more recent guidance,

precluding fire weather highlights at this time.
