June 25, 2018 Ten new large fires were reported yesterday, bringing the national total to 53 wildfires that have burned more than 437,000 acres in 10 states. Large fire activity picked up in California where five new wildfires have caused nearby residents to be evacuated. Weather: Hot and dry conditions are expected across the Southwest, Great Basin, and California as the high pressure ridge amplifies over the desert. A cold front moving across eastern Oregon and central Idaho may create pockets of critical fire weather conditions in the lower elevations as breezy winds and isolated convection interact with moderately low afternoon humidities. Low pressure over the Great Plains will allow for the development of scattered storms near the center of the low pressure area over Nebraska and also along a dry line that extends south through Texas. Across the East, a stationary front will allow for the development of afternoon convection across the Deep South. In Alaska, high pressure will strengthen over the Interior and will allow for continued warm and dry condition along a chance for afternoon storms. |
