Predictive Services Discussion:

Windy and dry conditions creating moderate to high-risk significant fire potential will develop across southeast 

Arizona into southern New Mexico and the Trans Pecos today. Dry conditions with minimum relative humidity 

below 30% will also develop across northeast Minnesota and portions of Virginia into North Carolina this 

afternoon. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will develop across much of Utah, Wyoming, and Colorado, 

spreading into the northern High Plains. Scattered to widespread showers and thunderstorms, some severe, are 

likely from the central Plains into the northern Gulf Coast. An upper low will continue to bring scattered showers 

and isolated thunderstorms to the eastern Great Lakes and Northeast while the Northwest and Northern 

California remain cool and dry. Cool and moist conditions will continue for the south cast of Alaska while the 

Interior remains dry with a warming trend.
