Fire weather concerns will remain limited for today across the country. Early-morning surface observations continue to show a very dry air mass across eastern AZ to central NM where fuels have been slowly curing. Modest southwesterly flow aloft will persist across the central Rockies, and will promote weak surface pressure falls along the High Plains. Consequently, flow across the Southwest/southern Rockies will remain fairly weak again today with only localized areas where winds will exceed 15 mph (most likely in terrain-prone regions of northern NM). As such, the potential for widespread fire weather concerns will remain limited. Similarly, anomalously dry conditions will continue across the Great Lakes region for today, but building surface high pressure will modulate wind speeds and the overall fire weather threat. ..Moore.. 06/01/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
