   ...Synopsis...
   Fire weather concerns are expected to remain limited for today
   across the country. Dry conditions will persist across much of the
   Great Basin and into parts of the Pacific Northwest and central
   Rockies for this afternoon with RH minimums once again falling into
   the teens and single digits. Upper-level ridging over the western
   CONUS will promote mostly clear skies but weak synoptic/gradient
   winds that should mitigate fire weather concerns.

   Thunderstorm activity along the lower CO River Valley on Thursday
   (yesterday) resulted in a mix of wet and dry thunderstorms based on
   sporadic rainfall measurements and MRMS QPE. A similar mix of
   wet/dry thunderstorms is expected again today across far southeast
   NV into western AZ as weak mid-level ascent overspreads the fringe
   of a modest monsoonal moisture plume. Latest fuel guidance suggests
   lightning ignition efficiency/fuel dryness gradually increases from
   far western AZ into southern NV, but the spatial coverage of
   sufficiently dry fuel with appreciable dry lightning threat appears
   too limited to introduce highlights.
