...Synopsis...
Across the Interior West, westerly flow aloft will gradually
transition to southwesterly as a mid-level trough amplifies over the
Pacific Northwest. Resultant increasing cloud cover across much of
the western CONUS, lighter prevailing winds, and a marginal fuel
environment will limit fire weather concerns. Upper ridging will
continue across the Southeast with surface high pressure centered
over the TN Valley, allowing warm and dry conditions to prevail. A
lack of strong wind where fuels are available to burn, mainly across
the lower MS River Valley and southern Appalachians, will preclude
any significant fire weather threat on Day 2/Thursday.
