...Synopsis...

An upper low will meander over the Southwest as a mid-level trough

amplifies over the eastern U.S. today, with northwest flow aloft

prevailing everywhere east of the Mississippi River. As such,

relatively cool conditions will prevail over much of the CONUS, with

significant wildfire-spread potential expected to be limited over

most locations. One exception may be central and eastern portions of

the Florida Peninsula, where 10-15 mph sustained westerly surface

winds, amid 25-35 percent RH, may overspread dry fuels during the

afternoon, warranting Elevated highlights. 



A few other areas may also experience localized conditions favorable

for wildfire growth. First, dry and occasionally breezy conditions

may overlap modestly receptive fuels over parts of southeast Arizona

into far southwestern New Mexico, which may promote locally Elevated

fire concerns during the afternoon. Second, dry northerly surface

winds will overspread the northern Plains behind the cold front,

though any wildfire-spread that materializes should be localized

given marginally receptive fuels.
