Predictive Services Discussion:

Hot, dry, and unstable conditions will continue across the Northwest extending into northern California, the 

northern Rockies, and northern Great Basin. Temperatures up to 110°F will occur in the lower valleys, with 

widespread temperatures in the 90s in the higher elevations. Relative humidity will fall to 10-25% with poor 

overnight recovery below 30% for many mid-slopes and ridges. In addition, gusty westerly winds will develop in 

the Cascade Gaps, while isolated to scattered mixed wet and dry thunderstorms develop over northern California 

into southwest and central Oregon with several new ignitions likely. Monsoon moisture will remain across the 

southern Sierra and Southwest into the greater Four Corners, with scattered wet thunderstorms in the afternoon 

and evening. Cooler temperatures are forecast across much of Texas into the Lower Mississippi Valley, but dry 

and gusty post-frontal northerly winds will create locally elevated conditions in north and central Texas into 

Louisiana. Scattered thunderstorms will develop near the stalled front in south Texas and along the Gulf Coast 

with potential new ignitions, while scattered to widespread thunderstorms will develop along the East Coast. 

Cooler, moisture conditions are forecast for Interior Alaska.
