...SCATTERED DRY THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE ON WEDNESDAY... Scattered thunderstorms containing little to no rainfall will be possible over much of North Central Washington Wednesday afternoon and evening. Isolated thunderstorms are possible elsewhere across Eastern Washington and North Idaho. The National Weather Service in Spokane has issued a Fire Weather Watch for thunderstorms, which is in effect from Wednesday afternoon through Wednesday evening. * Affected Area: Fire Weather Zone 696 East Washington Central Cascades (Zone 696), Fire Weather Zone 697 East Portion of North Cascades National Park/Lake Chelan National Recreation Area (Zone 697), Fire Weather Zone 698 East Washington North Cascades (Zone 698), Fire Weather Zone 699 Okanogan Highlands and Kettle Mountains (Zone 699), Fire Weather Zone 702 Colville Reservation (Zone 702), Fire Weather Zone 703 Okanogan Valley (Zone 703), Fire Weather Zone 704 Methow Valley (Zone 704), Fire Weather Zone 705 Foothills of Central Washington Cascades (Zone 705) and Fire Weather Zone 706 Waterville Plateau (Zone 706). * Thunderstorms: Scattered dry thunderstorms are possible, LAL 6. * Outflow Winds: Gusty and erratic winds are possible in the vicinity of any thunderstorms that develop. * Impacts: Thunderstorms containing little to no rain combined with dry fuels will lead to the potential for new fire starts that may overwhelm initial attack capabilities. Gusty winds near thunderstorms may result in rapid fire spread with any new or existing fires.

The National Weather Service in Seattle has issued a Fire Weather Watch for dry thunderstorms and gusty outflow winds, which is in effect from Tuesday evening through Wednesday evening. * AFFECTED AREA...Fire Weather Zone 658 West Slopes of the North Cascades Generally above 1500 Feet and Fire Weather Zone 659 West Slopes of the Central Cascades Generally above 1500 Feet. * THUNDERSTORMS...Scattered thunderstorms with LAL 3. * OUTFLOW WINDS...Gusty and erratic winds are possible in the vicinity of any thunderstorms that develop. * IMPACTS...Scattered lightning in dry fuels can cause multiple fire starts. Thunderstorms can also bring sudden sharp wind shifts on existing fires, causing rapid changes in a fire's rate of spread and direction of spread. Thunderstorm outflow winds can be a threat for several hours following the start of a new lightning-caused fire. If a fire were to begin, air quality may diminish in the surrounding area.
