Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Wrn Colorado and Ern Utah
National Weather Service Grand Junction CO
207 AM MDT Mon Aug 11 2025
.DISCUSSION...Localized critical fire weather conditions will occur
again today in the 4 Corners region of Colorado in this northerly
flow pattern. Otherwise winds will be lighter as temperatures
begin to rebound for the week. Moisture gets pulled back into the
southern fire zones overnight and this will lead to an uptick in
thunderstorm coverage tomorrow afternoon. Gusty winds and lightning
strikes will still be more probable than wetting rainfall. Moisture
increases through the week and bring better chances of rainfall late.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
