Day 2 Fire Weather Outlook  

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

1254 AM CDT Wed May 06 2026



Valid 071200Z - 081200Z



...Synopsis...

An upper-level trough and associated mid-level speed max will shift

into eastern CONUS Thursday. A cold front and attendant band of

showers and thunderstorms will overspread much of the Southeast and

Piedmont regions. Increasing westerly low-level flow south of the

frontal boundary will bring fire weather concerns to portions of

eastern FL Thursday. A building upper ridge across the western U.S.

will promote warming temperatures and dry conditions for the region.





...Florida Peninsula...

Enhanced westerly surface winds of 10-15 mph are expected across the

FL Peninsula as a cold front approaches the FL/GA border Thursday.

Inland temperatures in the low to mid 90s F will evolve within a

dry, well mixed boundary layer by early Thursday afternoon. The warm

temperatures, increasing westerly flow amid relative humidity in the

25-35% range and drying fuels, will support an elevated fire weather

concern for portions of the eastern FL Peninsula where Elevated

Highlights have been introduced.
