...Synopsis...

Broad cyclonic flow will overspread the central CONUS tomorrow

(Thursday), with an embedded mid-level trough impinging on the

central/southern Plains as the mid-level trough (discussed in the

Day 1 Outlook) approaches the Great Lakes. A surface low will

quickly deepen while traversing the Mississippi Valley, resulting in

strong westerly isallobaric surface flow across the southern High

Plains. While 15-25 mph sustained westerly surface winds should

become common, RH may only dip to 25 percent. Furthermore, several

areas across portions of the Plains may experience appreciable

rainfall accumulations early Thursday morning, which may dampen

fuels. Given uncertainties in fuel receptiveness to wildfire spread

and potentially higher RH, fire weather highlights have been

withheld this outlook.
