Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1238 AM CDT Wed May 07 2025

Valid 081200Z - 091200Z

...Synopsis...
Fire weather potential will generally be limited for much of the
country on Thursday, though regional concerns will likely emerge for
parts of western North Dakota during the afternoon hours. A cold
front associated with a clipper low migrating across the Canadian
Prairies is forecast to push across central and eastern MT during
the day. Pre-frontal southerly flow is forecast to increase to 15-20
mph across western ND by late afternoon. A combination of
temperatures warming into the low 80s with deep boundary-layer
mixing should yield RH values in the low to mid 20s. Much of western
ND has remained dry over the past few days, and residual dead
grasses have supported a couple of large fires over the past week.
While the fire weather threat is not expected to be particularly
widespread, the potential for elevated fire weather conditions over
a receptive fuel landscape warrants highlights.
