Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1021 AM CDT Thu Oct 03 2024

Valid 031700Z - 041200Z

The previous forecast remains on track. Consideration was made for
introducing a risk area to portions of central to northeast NE and
far northwest IA for this afternoon. Morning guidance continues to
show a strong signal for sustained 20-25 mph winds this afternoon
with the potential for gusts up to 30-35 mph. However, most 12 UTC
solutions, including several HREF members, are showing a pronounced
5-10 F warm bias across the central Plains based on 15 UTC
observations. Solutions that have captured recent
temperature/dewpoint trends well suggest RH will only fall to the
25-30% range by late afternoon. Consequently, confidence in
sustained elevated conditions remains very limited and precludes
risk highlights. 

Further south across the southern High Plains, elevated wind/RH
criteria will likely be met as winds increase on either side of a
surface trough. However, fuel dryness does not appear sufficient to
support a robust fire concern based on recent fuel guidance.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0217 AM CDT Thu Oct 03 2024/

...Synopsis...
Shortwave ridging will traverse the western CONUS today. As this
occurs, high pressure will also build into the northern Plains. Some
breezy conditions are probable this afternoon in the wake of a cold
front across the central Plains. However, relative humidities will
not be that low (25-30 percent), and the strongest winds will likely
be displaced south of the driest fuels. Therefore, no Elevated area
is warranted today. However, warm and dry conditions will prevail
across most of the western CONUS and result in continued drying of
fuels.

🚨 Red Flag Warning issued September 30 at 2:26PM CDT until September 30 at 9:00PM CDT by NWS Duluth MN 🚨 Additional Details Here.

...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL
AND NORTH-CENTRAL MINNESOTA TODAY...

.Strong and gusty southerly winds are forecast today into this
evening ahead of an approaching cold front, turning westerly and
northwesterly after the passage of the front. A dry airmass
remains in place over the region and with daytime heating, will
drop relative humidity into the 20 to 30 percent range by late
this morning. Lower dewpoint air will follow the cold front and
keep RH values low behind the front. The combination of low RH,
strong and gusty winds, and limited precipitation over the past
several weeks, will create critical fire weather conditions for
portions of central and north-central Minnesota today and this
evening. RH values will improve this evening as the air near the
ground begins to cool around sunset.

* AFFECTED AREA...In Minnesota, North Itasca, North Cass, South
Itasca, South Cass, Crow Wing, Northern Aitkin and South
Aitkin.

* WINDS...Southwest around 15 mph with gusts up to 35 mph.

* RELATIVE HUMIDITY...As low as 22 percent.

* IMPACTS...This combination of wind and minimum RH could lead
to the rapid spread of fires.
