Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook  

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

0338 PM CDT Sun Mar 10 2024



Valid 121200Z - 181200Z



A trough will amplify across the western CONUS on D3/Tue and D4/Wed

with lee cyclogenesis in the central Plains and strengthening

mid-level flow across the Southwest. This will lead to Elevated to

Critical fire weather conditions across portions of the southern

High Plains.



...D3/Tue- Southern High Plains...

Lee cyclogenesis and a deeply mixed atmosphere will lead to some dry

and breezy conditions across the southern High Plains on Tuesday.

The worst conditions are expected across portions of Far West Texas

where mid-level flow will be somewhat stronger and mixing is

expected to be deeper.



...D4/Wed - Southern High Plains...

On Wednesday, critical fire weather conditions are expected across

much of the southern High Plains. This is a result of strengthening

mid-level flow (50-60 mph at 500mb) and a deepening surface cyclone

in the vicinity of western Oklahoma and southern Kansas. Much of

this region has been dry over the past week and significant drying

will continue leading up to Wednesday. Therefore, a broad region is

likely to have significant fire weather concerns on Wednesday.
