URGENT - FIRE WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Denver/Boulder CO
223 PM MDT Sat Oct 3 2020
...Critical Fire Wx Conditions expected on Monday for the higher
elevations of the northern mountains, North Park and Middle Parks,
and the northern plains...
.Increased flow along the Colorado-Wyoming border is expected to
begin very early Monday morning. Mountain wave enhancement of the
winds is likely after midnight Monday across the east slopes of
the Front Range Mountains of Jackson and Larimer Counties. The
strongest winds are expected before sunrise and could gust to 50
mph in the most favored locations. Though relative humidity will
be higher than red flag conditions during the morning hours, the
potential for strong winds over existing fires is a major concern.
After sunrise the rest of the area in the watch will see
gradually increasing winds with strong mixing and full sun.
Relative humidity will be below 15 percent and gusty winds are
expected across the plains and across the west slope. Again the
strongest winds Monday afternoon will be possible across the
higher elevations of Jackson and Larimer Counties, with more
marginal wind speeds in Grand and Summit Counties, as well as the
northern plains of Colorado.
