Critical fire weather results from a combination of high temperatures, low humidities and strong, gusty winds.

Burn permits in Natrona County have been suspended.

The storm is expected to remain over mainly rural areas or northeastern Natrona and Southeastern Johnson Counties.

50 - 60 mph wind gusts, quarter to golf ball sized hail and brief heavy rainfall will be possible in the strongest of storms.
