Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook![]() NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0132 AM CDT Thu Aug 18 2022 Valid 181200Z - 191200Z ...Synopsis... Broad mid-level troughing will dominate the Plains states eastward while weak upper ridging persists across the Interior West today. A mid-level shortwave trough is expected to pivot around the upper ridge and lift a monsoonal airmass, promoting high-based thunderstorm development across portions of the Pacific Northwest by afternoon. Isolated dry thunderstorm highlights were added to account for the potential of several strikes occurring away from storm cores into dry fuel beds. Otherwise, locally Elevated conditions may accompany the post-cold frontal environment across the central Plains, supporting localized potential for fire growth wherever dry/occasionally breezy conditions overlap with patchy dry fuels. ..Squitieri.. 08/18/2022 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
