Wheather Alert Summary: ...3 days of near-critical to critical fire weather conditions
expected across northeastern wyoming and western south dakota
monday through wednesday...
.High pressure building into the region will support a strong
warming and drying trend across northeastern wyoming and western
south dakota today through wednesday. daily afternoon relative
humidity values will drop into the 8 to 20 percent range by monday
and stay there each afternoon through wednesday, while
temperatures gradually warm into the 80s to near 90. winds will
be more marginal and somewhat of a limiting factor at times for
meeting formal critical fire weather thresholds, but gusts of at
least 25 mph will likely overlap with these dry humidity values in
some areas each day, with much stronger winds regionwide
wednesday. the combination of dry fuels, low relative humidities,
gusty winds, and hot temperatures will support widespread near-
critical to critical fire weather conditions, with multiple red
flag warnings possible over the period. the first warning has been

and south-central south dakota plains for monday.
