| Brief Description | Fire Weather Watch | |
| Detailed Description | CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS POSSIBLE ACROSS MUCH OF NORTHEASTERN WYOMING AND FAR SOUTHWESTERN SOUTH DAKOTA FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. .Gusty south to southwest winds are expected to develop ahead of a cold front Friday afternoon across northeastern Wyoming and southwestern South Dakota as a warm and dry air mass again overspreads the region. Sustained south to southwest winds of 10 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph are expected Friday afternoon, with relative humidity values likely dropping below 10 percent in some locations. Relative humidity values may modestly improve Friday night into Saturday morning as a cold front crosses the area; however, relative humidity values are then anticipated to drop below 20 percent by Saturday afternoon as strong northwesterly winds develop. The area of potential critical fire weather conditions may expand farther into southwestern and south central South Dakota on Saturday. The National Weather Service in Rapid City has issued a Fire Weather Watch for gusty winds and low relative humidity, which is in effect from Friday afternoon through Saturday afternoon. * AFFECTED AREA.

As low as 9 percent Friday afternoon, and as low as 13 percent Saturday afternoon. * IMPACTS. The combination of gusty winds and low relative humidity would produce critical fire weather conditions. |
