Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1119 AM CDT Mon Apr 07 2025

Valid 071700Z - 081200Z

The previous forecast (see below) remains on track. Gusty southwest
winds across central Florida are still expected ahead of a cold
front through this afternoon across portions of the central and
southern Florida Peninsula. Several days of preceding dry and warm
conditions have allowed somewhat more receptive fuels for wildfire
spread.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1156 PM CDT Sun Apr 06 2025/

...Synopsis...
A mid-level trough will amplify along the East Coast as upper
ridging builds in over the Southwest, supporting a cold front moving
offshore as surface lee troughing develops along the High Plains.
Across the Florida Peninsula, the passage of the cold front will
support 15 mph sustained westerly surface winds as RH drops to 35-45
percent during the afternoon. Elevated highlights have been
maintained in this region given the presence of fuels receptive to
wildfire spread.
