No fire-weather highlights are forecast for Saturday. Generally, there will be a lack of overlap between receptive fuels and strong/dry surface winds across much of the U.S., especially with some recent wetting rainfall across the Central/Southern Plains and eastward. There is some signal for 15-20 MPH winds in a post-frontal airmass across the Dakotas, but surface relative humidity is currently forecast to largely remain at or above 30%. Still, given the critically dry fuels across the Northern Plains, this area could include Elevated highlights in future updates. ..Halbert.. 05/08/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
