There is an elevated risk of wildfires in Northeastern Nevada from 11 AM PDT Wednesday morning until 11 PM PDT Wednesday evening. The combination of critically dry fuels, very low relative humidity values, and gusty west to northwest winds can contribute to extreme fire behavior. Any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.
Isolated, dry thunderstorms are expected in most of Northern and Central Nevada (pink, shaded areas) both Friday afternoon and Saturday afternoon. "Dry thunderstorms" are thunderstorms that produce little or no rainfall at the surface. In combination with arid fuels (i.e. vegetation), dry thunderstorms can ignite wildfires with lightning, but will not produce much rain to put the wildfires out.
