...D3/Thursday Florida Peninsula...
A deep long-wave trough will move across the eastern US on
D3/Thursday, with attendant cold front and enhanced west to
northwest flow aloft overspreading portions of the northern and
central Florida Peninsula. Though the strongest flow aloft will
remain to the north, there is potential for breezy surface winds
around 10-15 mph to overlap relative humidity around 35-40 percent
as drier and cooler air filters in behind the front. This region has
received well below normal rainfall in the last 30-60 days, with
ERCs approaching the 80-90th percentile. Rainfall is forecast with
the frontal passage, most potential for wetting rainfall on the
western coast of the peninsula. As winds and relative humidity look
to be more in line with Elevated fire weather concerns and with
potential for rainfall, no areas are needed at this time but trends
will be monitored in the coming days given the Critical status of
fuels.

...High/Southern Plains...
As the progressive pattern of trough ejections continues through
early next week, periods of dry/windy conditions are expected across
the High/Southern Plains, however,fuels do not appear supportive of
large-fire potential at this time. ERC forecasts do indicate fuels
will dry, particularly across western Texas into eastern New Mexico,
but largely remain below Critical thresholds.
