...Synopsis...

A progressive upper pattern will continue from Day 1 to Day

2/Friday, as an upper trough ejects into the Upper Mississippi

Valley while a second trough aloft deepens over the Interior West.

Low-level moisture return will impinge on the southern to eastern

CONUS, limiting the potential for significant wildfire spread.

Across the central/southern High Plains southwestward into Arizona

and New Mexico, dry downslope flow aided by the aforementioned upper

troughing may encourage the development of Elevated to locally

Critical surface wind/RH conditions by afternoon peak heating.

However, fuel receptiveness to wildfire spread is expected to remain

mediocre across much of the southwest into the central CONUS, with

no fire weather highlights introduced.
