   ...Synopsis...
   Broad west-southwesterly mid-level flow will continue to bring dry
   and windy conditions to portions of southern Nevada and southwestern
   Utah, into northwestern Colorado and southern Wyoming. Additionally,
   a mid-level shortwave trough moving across northern Idaho and
   Montana will bring chances for isolated dry thunderstorms to western
   Montana and into far northwestern Wyoming. 

   ...Dry Thunder...
   Cold temperatures aloft and forcing for ascent from a mid-level
   trough moving across northern Montana will bring chances for
   isolated dry thunder to much of western Montana, where fuels are
   receptive to lightning-based ignitions and wildfire spread. 

   ...Dry and Windy...
   Dry and windy conditions will persist across the Great Basin on
   Sunday, where meteorological conditions will locally reach Critical
   criteria. Current fuel guidance suggests less than ideal conditions
   for wildfire ignitions, precluding the introduction of Critical
   highlights at this time. However, the dry and windy conditions of
   the previous day could result in some fuel recovery and will
   continue to be monitored.
