Please see the prior outlook for more information. ..Lyons.. 06/30/2022 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 0142 AM CDT Thu Jun 30 2022/ ...Synopsis... Upper ridging will remain in place across the central Rockies into the Plains states while a subtle mid-level trough becomes established on the West Coast tomorrow/Friday. As in Day 1, locally dry and breezy conditions may develop across parts of the Great Basin during the afternoon, promoting a limited wildfire-spread threat. Mid-level moisture will also coincide with the upper ridge, supporting scattered high-based thunderstorm development across the central/northern Rockies, with more isolated thunderstorm development possible westward into Oregon. While a couple of dry strikes are possible, fuels are expected to be marginally to modestly receptive at best, and on a spotty basis, rendering the overall lightning-induced ignition threat relatively low. ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... $$
