Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0340 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026 Valid 131200Z - 181200Z ...DISCUSSION... A large-scale upper-level trough is forecast to develop across the central and eastern U.S. during the mid-week. This feature is forecast to move eastward toward the Atlantic Seaboard late in the week, as another trough takes its place further west across the Mississippi Valley. In response to the pattern, a large area of high pressure is forecast to settle into the central U.S. on Wednesday and move slowly across the Gulf Coast region on Thursday and Friday. Another large area of high pressure is forecast to move southward into the western and central U.S. by the weekend. As a result, the airmass across most of the continental U.S. during the mid to late week should be cold and relatively dry, suggesting thunderstorm development will be unlikely during the Day 4 to 8 period.Read more

Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0225 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026 Valid 121200Z - 131200Z ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorms are not expected across the U.S. on Monday and Monday night. ...DISCUSSION... A large-scale upper-level trough will remain over the eastern U.S. on Monday, as a mid-level shortwave trough moves southeastward into the north-central states Monday night. At the surface, an area of high pressure will remain anchored over the Gulf Coast states on Monday, as a cool and dry airmass remains in place over much of the continental U.S. For this reason, thunderstorms are not expected to develop over the nation Monday or Monday night. ..Broyles.. 01/10/2026Read more

Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0102 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026 Valid 111200Z - 121200Z ...NO CRITICAL AREAS... ...Synopsis... Troughing over the eastern US will continue to intensify as it moves offshore D2/Sunday. Strong west/northwesterly flow aloft will overspread much of the Mid Atlantic and southeast states through the day. Considerable rainfall associated with the trough and an advancing surface cold front will likely mitigate fire weather concerns from the northern Gulf Coast into the Mid Atlantic. However, rain will be less common over portions of southern Georgia, the Coastal Plains of the Carolinas and northern Florida. As the front moves offshore, dry northerly flow is likely with gusts of 15-20 mph and RH below 35%. Brief, locally elevated fire-weather conditions are possible along the immediate coastal plain. However, fuels here remain only marginally receptive to fire spread in areas without recent precipitation. Thus, broader fire-weather concerns appear unlikely. ..Lyons.. 01/10/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...Read more

Day 1 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1258 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026 Valid 101200Z - 111200Z ...Synopsis... Broad mid-level troughing will intensify as it moves eastward across the US today and tonight. A cold front will sweep southeastward through the Plains and southeast States with showers and thunderstorms ahead of it. Strong high pressure will rapidly build over the Rockies and western states. A dry post-frontal air mass will develop in the wake of the front, with the driest portions expected across parts of the Edwards Plateau and the Rio Grande Valley. Downslope and gusty northerly winds of 20-25 mph will overlap with RH values as low as 15-20% this afternoon. While some rain has fallen over the eastern portions of south-central TX, overall fuels remain quite dry. This will promote a few hours of Elevated fire weather conditions in the Rio Grande Valley and Edwards Plateau this afternoon. Fire weather concerns will quickly diminish this evening as winds weaken and colder temperatures settle into region. ..Lyons.. 01/10/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product...Read more

Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1243 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026 Valid 111200Z - 121200Z ...NO THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Thunderstorms are not expected across the U.S. on Sunday or Sunday night. ...DISCUSSION... An upper-level trough over the mid Mississippi Valley will move to the Atlantic Seaboard on Sunday, as northwesterly mid-level flow becomes established over much of the central and eastern part of the U.S. At the surface, an area of high pressure will remain over the south-central and southeastern U.S. The pattern will keep a dry and cool airmass in place over most of the continental U.S., making thunderstorm development unlikely in the U.S. Sunday and Sunday night. ..Broyles.. 01/10/2026Read more
