...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR THE SOUTHERN HIGH PLAINS...



...Synopsis...

On Sunday a very strong mid-level jet will move farther east across

the southern High Plains ahead of a strong mid-level low. Intense

lee cyclogenesis is also expected with a sub-1000mb surface low in

eastern Colorado. As a result, windy conditions are expected for

much of the Southwest, Southern Plains, and central Plains. The

greatest winds are expected across the southern High Plains where a

deeply mixed airmass will be present and allow stronger flow aloft

to reach the surface. In this region, sustained winds of 30+ mph are

possible. Some extremely critical meteorological fire-weather

conditions are possible, but they should be somewhat localized, and

current fuel states do not support an Extremely Critical

delineation.
