   Valid 241700Z - 251200Z

   No changes have been made to the Elevated area. Late-morning surface
   observations show sustained winds approaching 20 mph from
   east-central NM into the TX South Plains, with RH values dropping to
   20-25%. Further warming/drying will result in elevated fire-weather
   conditions for a few hours this afternoon, though winds will tend to
   decrease with time from west to east as the primary midlevel
   shortwave trough and surface low move away from the region. See the
   previous discussion below for more information.

   ...Synopsis...
   A mid-level trough and associated surface low/dryline will move
   eastward across the central CONUS today as a more pronounced upper
   trough deepens across the West. Behind the dryline bulge, 15 mph
   west-southwesterly surface winds coinciding with 15-20% RH are
   expected for at least a few hours during the afternoon. Given
   multiple preceding days of dry and windy conditions, with no
   appreciable rainfall accumulations, finer fuels should be primed
   enough to support some grass-fire spread, warranting the
   continuation of Elevated highlights across parts of the southern
   High Plains.
