Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Utah
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
253 PM MDT Fri Jul 4 2025

...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FROM NOON TODAY TO 9 PM MDT THIS
EVENING FOR WIND AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY FOR FIRE WEATHER ZONES
492, 495, 497, AND 498...

.BROADCAST DISCUSSION...Breezy and dry conditions will result in
areas of critical fire weather through Friday evening across
portions of the West Desert and southern Utah. Across northern
Utah, scattered thunderstorms will bring potential for lightning,
gusty outflow winds, and small hail. Drier and milder conditions
build in this weekend into the upcoming week.

.DISCUSSION...Moisture has continued to scour out across areas of
western and southern Utah today, with broad scale weather pattern
supporting modestly breezy southwesterly winds. As a result, some
localized areas of critical fire weather conditions are noted.
Winds will gradually decrease Friday evening into the overnight,
helping to abate these conditions.

Across the northern half to third of Utah, moisture remains in
sufficient quantities to help develop isolated to scattered
showers and thunderstorms. Conditions are favorable as well for a
few stronger storms capable of frequent lightning, gusty erratic
outflow winds, small hail, and brief moderate rain. These gusty
erratic outflow winds, potentially in excess of 50 mph, may
propagate further away from area thunderstorms as well.

High pressure becomes the dominant forecast feature this weekend
on into the upcoming week. This will result in a return of
widespread dry conditions and a warming trend. While widespread
gusty conditions aren`t expected at this time, any locally windier
spots will see potential for elevated fire weather conditions
given the low daytime humidity and poor overnight recoveries.


***Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds***
***All winds are 20 foot, 10-minute averages***
