FNUS55 KSLC 080953 FWFSLC Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Utah National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT 353 AM MDT Wed Jul 8 2026 ...RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 9 PM MDT THIS EVENING FOR WIND AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY FOR FIRE WEATHER ZONES 492, 495, 497, AND 498... ...RED FLAG WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM NOON TODAY TO 9 PM MDT THIS EVENING FOR WIND AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY FOR FIRE WEATHER ZONES 493 AND 496... .BROADCAST DISCUSSION...High based convection will bring the threat of isolated dry lightning to portions of northern Utah today. Breezy and increasingly dry conditions over central and southern Utah will bring areas of critical fire weather conditions today and potentially into Thursday. Very dry conditions will continue through early next week, with potentially record breaking heat developing over the weekend, before moisture increases. .DISCUSSION...The airmass will trend drier today under a west- southwesterly flow as high pressure shifts west off the northern Baja coast. Afternoon relative humidities will drop below 15% across most of central and southern Utah, down to the single digits in some valley locales. Meanwhile, across northern Utah, lingering moisture will maintain isolated to scattered mainly high-based showers and thunderstorms, with isolated dry lightning and gusty outflow winds being the main threat. While chances of showers and thunderstorms across the central mountains and adjacent valleys are nonzero, they are expected to be much more isolated there today. Meanwhile, enhanced winds combined with the low humidities will once again drive critical fire weather conditions across portions of central and southern Utah today. The drying trend will continue across the area through the rest of the week, with humidities continuing to trend downward across the area and overnight recoveries become increasingly poor especially across central and southern Utah. Convection will become increasingly isolated during this time as well. Thursday may continue to bring critical fire weather conditions as winds remain enhanced especially across southern Utah. As high pressure builds back into the area for the weekend into the beginning of next week, dry and very hot conditions can be expected. Temperatures are very likely to reach at least 100 degrees in most valleys over the weekend, while relative humidities in the single digits will be common. However, the pattern still looks favorable for moisture to increase into the area beginning early next week. ***Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds*** ***All winds are 20 foot, 10-minute averages*** UTZ478-090145- Salt Lake Desert- 353 AM MDT Wed Jul 8 2026 .TODAY...
