Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Wrn Colorado and Ern Utah
National Weather Service Grand Junction CO
203 PM MDT Sat Oct 19 2024
.DISCUSSION...After dumping wetting rainfall over most of eastern
Utah and a portion of southwest Colorado this storm system will be
kicking across central Colorado over the next 24 to 36 hours. This
will spread additional rain and snow to the central fire zones
before drying and warming returns Monday afternoon. Dry and warmer
conditions can be expected for much of next week as high pressure
builds back in. Warming temperatures aloft and stable conditions
will negatively impact ventilation and smoke dispersal as a result.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
...THE SMOKE DATA IS CALCULATED FROM AN AVERAGE AT 6000 FEET MSL...
