Predictive Services Discussion:
Upper-level ridging is forecast to build north through the Sierra into the Cascades Thursday. Above normal
temperatures will continue in California, Arizona, and western Nevada, spreading north into western Washington
and Oregon. Winds overall will be light but locally breezy easterly winds around 10 mph are possible in favored
areas on the west slopes of the Cascades. Very dry air is likely to spread into much of the Intermountain West
as well, with minimum relative humidity of 5-20% and fair to poor overnight recovery for much of California, the
Inland Northwest, Great Basin, Wyoming, and the West Slope. Higher humidity is expected across
central/eastern Montana despite breezy northwesterly post-frontal winds, and southeastern Arizona into New
Mexico where isolated to scattered monsoon thunderstorms are forecast.
Hot temperatures and low relative humidity will continue for another day in much of Tennessee, northern
Alabama, northern Mississippi, and central Appalachians while moisture continues to increase closer to the Gulf
Coast and much of the southern Plains. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will develop in the afternoon, with
areas of wetting rain, although new ignitions remain possible. Scattered to widespread showers and
thunderstorms will develop along and ahead of a cold front moving through the Texas Panhandle, central Plains,
Upper Mississippi Valley, and western Great Lakes.
