SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0133 AM CDT Mon Jun 08 2026 Valid 091200Z - 101200Z ...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER AREA FOR PORTIONS OF THE SOUTHWEST AND GREAT BASIN... ...Synopsis... A longwave trough will remain in place over the northwestern CONUS through the day on Tuesday with a strong jet max moving in across portions of the Pacific Northwest and Great Basin. This will result gusty winds across portions of the Southwest, Great Basin, and central Rockies, and central High Plains. ...Southwest and Great Basin... Diurnal mixing with strong (for the season) flow aloft will result in winds of 20-30 mph across much of the region along with RH of 5-15% in the afternoon. Continued poor overnight RH recovery means fuels in this area are critically dry. Therefore, have introduced a Critical fire weather risk area here. ...Central High Plains and Foothills... Strong winds (20-30 mph and locally higher) are expected to overspread the region along with RH values in the 10-15% range west of a dryline. The primary uncertainty in this region is with the fuels, as many areas have received precipitation recently, and some may receive additional precipitation on Monday. Therefore, will add an Elevated risk in this area, though there may be some localized areas of Critical fire weather risk. ..Supinie.. 06/08/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...
