Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0143 PM CDT Thu Jul 31 2025

Valid 011200Z - 021200Z

No changes to the ongoing forecast. Thunderstorms are possible
farther west/northwest in northern California and southwest Oregon.
However, storm motions appear that they will be too slow for a
significant threat of ignitions. Additionally, locally elevated
conditions are possible from southern Nevada into southwest Utah.
Winds generally appear too weak (less than 15 mph) or short in
duration for highlights.

...Synopsis...
Broad upper troughing will persist over the Interior West, with at
least one pronounced mid-level impulse expected to traverse the
upper trough over the northern Great Basin tomorrow (Friday). Upper
support with the embedded impulse will support high-based
thunderstorm development atop a dry boundary layer over the northern
Great Basin. During the afternoon, both wet and dry thunderstorms
should produce dry strikes over receptive fuel beds, necessitating
isolated dry thunderstorm highlights.
