...Synopsis...
A pronounced mid-level trough will eject into the Atlantic as a
second mid-level trough impinges on the West Coast today. Ample
precipitation accumulations should accompany both mid-level troughs
along the West and East Coast shorelines, reducing wildfire-spread
potential in these areas. Surface high pressure will also support
cooler surface conditions and minimal wildfire-spread potential
across much of the central U.S. The only notable area for fire
weather concerns is across the northern FL Peninsula. Here,
northwesterly surface flow within a post-cold front environment will
support 15 mph sustained winds amid 25-35 percent RH by afternoon
peak heating. Given at least marginally receptive fuels available
for wildfire spread, Elevated highlights have been introduced.
