...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR THE SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN AND

CENTRAL ROCKIES...

...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR SNAKE RIVER PLAIN...



...Synopsis...

The upper-level low over the Northwest will advance towards the

Northern Rockies, as a surface low intensifies over the northern

Plains with the trailing cold front moving through the northern

Great Basin. This will bolster surface winds across parts of the

Southwest and central Rockies mid a very dry air mass. Elevated to

critical fire-weather conditions are likely.



...Southern Great Basin and central Rockies...

Beneath the stronger flow loft, gusty surface winds are again likely

ahead of the cold front from southern NV, into UT, parts of western

CO and southwestern WY. Aided by deep mixing and 30-40 kt of

southwest flow aloft, afternoon surface winds of 20-30 mph are

expected. Poor to nonexistent overnight humidity recoveries and

afternoon minimums of 5 to 15 percent will exacerbate critical fuels

across the Southern Rockies and Southwest. The combination of very

dry air, strong winds and receptive fuels will favor several hours

of widespread critical conditions Sunday afternoon.



...ID...

Beneath the upper trough, continued strong southwesterly flow aloft

will bolster surface winds through the Snake River Plains and

southern ID. Gusty surface winds of 20-35 mph and RH of 10-20% will

support several hours of elevated to critical fire-weather

conditions Sunday. Gusty wind and low humidity may extend farther

eastward into ID and far western WY, but here fuels here have

received recent rainfall and are less receptive.
