.DISCUSSION...
The middle of the week will feature a drying trend, with
periods of breezy to gusty winds. Strongest winds near
the area of the burn are expected to occur in the afternoon
and early evening hours. Given the general northerly
direction of the winds, afternoon minimum RH values are
expected to fall into the teens to low 20s. Some gradual
RH recovery is then anticipated into the end of the week
alongside a gradual warming trend. Potential for
precipitation chances returns to the forecast by next
weekend, with currently a 20 to 40% chance of precipitation
on Saturday and Sunday.
