   ...Synopsis...
   A midlevel trough will advance east-southeastward from the Midwest
   toward the Northeast through the period, while an upper ridge
   encompasses much of the West. On the backside of the midlevel
   trough, a post-frontal air mass will infiltrate the northern and
   central Plains, where breezy/gusty northerly surface winds are
   expected. Over portions of southern NE and KS, these winds could
   briefly overlap 20-30 percent afternoon RH, favoring locally
   elevated fire-weather conditions -- given receptive fuels across the
   area. However, these conditions appear too brief and marginal for
   Elevated highlights at this time.

   Farther west, dry/breezy conditions are expected across the
   Southwest during the afternoon. However, fuels are generally not
   supportive of large fires at this time.
