Red Flag Warning and High Wind Watches issued across central U.S. as strong northwesterly winds develop

Strong northwesterly winds and very low humidity will bring critical fire weather conditions across eastern Colorado and western Kansas on Thursday, January 15, 2026, prompting the National Weather Service in Goodland to issue a Red Flag Warning and Fire Weather Watch. At the same time, high wind watches have been issued across the northern and central Great Plains, with gusts up to 120 km/h (75 mph) expected Thursday through Friday, January 16. #fireweather #COwx #KSwx

Thank you! I didn't watch that "pop up" but this later one, https://www.youtube.com/live/z8jxiYbIc0M
for which you gave a short summary on Bluesky as a " lengthy discussion on complexity of California's contemporary relationship with fire--especially the wide range of fire regimes across CA's varied ecosystems, the spectrum of "good" to "bad" fire, and the millennia-long role of Indigenous fire."

Educational on its own, and paired with the #OfficeHours in January establish a welcomed feeling of being informed about reasons, factors and processes in wildfires in such Mediterranean ecosystems.
January were the only other fire-related sessions I watched so far, beside your video from Sept 3.
