SPC Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook

Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0235 PM CDT Wed Apr 23 2025

Valid 241200Z - 251200Z

...20z Update...
Minimal changes have been made to the prior outlook. Dry conditions
are likely across parts of the Southwest and northeastern NM behind
a sharpening lee trough/dryline. However, consensus model guidance
suggests winds are unlikely to gust over 15-20 mph on a widespread
basis. Additional elevated conditions are possible over parts of
western FL where very warm temperatures and low RH will support some
fire-weather risk. See the previous discussion.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0158 AM CDT Wed Apr 23 2025/

...Synopsis...
A mid-level trough will impinge on the California coastline while
generally upper-ridging builds over the central and eastern CONUS
tomorrow (Thursday). Dry and occasionally breezy conditions are
possible across parts of the Desert Southwest. However, the latest
guidance consensus suggests that the surface wind field across
Arizona into New Mexico will be too weak to warrant Elevated
highlights at this time. Otherwise, another day of dry southeasterly
winds will encourage Elevated wildfire-spread potential across
western portions of the Florida Peninsula.
