...CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH MONDAY...
.Warm, dry and very windy conditions during the afternoon and early evening hours today ahead of and behind a strong cold front will again produce critical wildfire conditions.

Southwest winds ahead of the front will shift to the west/northwest and increase with gusts to around 45 mph as the front sweeps across the plains late in the afternoon.
