Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook  

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

0155 AM CST Sun Feb 02 2025



Valid 021200Z - 031200Z



...NO CRITICAL AREAS...



...Synopsis...

Increasing zonal flow aloft over the Rockies will aide in deepening

a lee trough over much of the High Plains. Coincident with warm

temperatures and dry surface conditions, gusty winds could support

some localized fire-weather risk. However, the lack of stronger

winds, and more modest fuel receptiveness should limit greater

fire-weather concerns.



...Southern High Plains...

Dry and breezy conditions should continue today as the lee

low/trough remains over the High Plains. Continued warm and dry

conditions will support further curing of area fuels. Stronger, but

displaced zonal flow aloft should keep surface wind speeds modest

for much of that period across areas of the drier/more receptive

fuels. Localized elevated fire-weather conditions are still possible

from southeastern NM into West TX. However, conditions are not

expected to be widespread enough to support an Elevated area.

Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

0157 AM CST Sun Feb 02 2025



Valid 031200Z - 041200Z



...NO CRITICAL AREAS...



...Synopsis...

Predominately zonal mid-level flow will persist over much of the

CONUS D2/Monday. Low-amplitude ridging within the zonal flow should

slowly build over the central Plains supporting relatively quiescent

weather. While occasional gusty surface winds are expected near a

lee trough across the High Plains, overall fire-weather conditions

appear limited.



...Southern Plains...

Occasional dry and breezy conditions will continue across the

southern Plains through Day2/Monday. A lee low and cold front over

west TX could support occasional gusts to 15 mph. Dry conditions

should also persist, though stronger southerly flow should increase

humidity gradually. Additional drying of fuels is likely with little

to no precipitation expected. This could support localized

fire-weather potential across the southern High Plains, but

widespread concerns are not expected.
