SPOT FORECAST FOR CPT G-02 709 AM
CDT THU MAY 23 2013
MAIN CONCERN TODAY AND TONIGHT: WE
ARE PLANNING TO BURN NEAR I-10,
AND ANY SMOKE OR FOG ON THE
INTERSTATE MAY IMPACT VISIBILITY.
QUESTIONS:
1. PLEASE INCLUDE A FOG POTENTIAL
STATEMENT FOR TONIGHT AND TOMORROW
MORNING.
2. POINTANDCLICK FORECAST HAS WIND
4MPH AND RH 81 ALL NIGHT, WHICH
SHOULD ELIMINATE ANY FOG CONCERNS.
IS THIS CORRECT NOTE: RH
THURSDAY NIGHT WAS MUCH HIGHER
THAN SPOT FORECAST FOR CPT
G-02OUTSIDE THE NWS MARGIN OF
ERROR.
3. THE FIRE WEATHER FORECASTER
THURSDAY STATED THAT SEABREEZE
WOULD NOT BE A FACTOR TODAY, DUE
TO STRONG HIGH PRESSURE AND TIGHT
GRADIENTS. IS THIS STILL THE
CASE IF SO, WE WILL TAKE
ADVANTAGE OF THIS OPPORTUNITY TO
BURN SOUTH OF I-10, WITH NORTHERLY
WIND PUSHING SMOKE AWAY FROM THE
INTERSTATE.
4. THE FIRE WEATHER FORECASTER
THURSDAY STATED THERE WAS A
POSSIBILITY THAT MIXING OF DRIER
AIR ALOFT COULD CAUSE LOWER THAN
EXPECTED RH TODAY. WHAT ARE THE
CHANCES OF THAT HAPPENING, AND
WHAT IS THE WORST CASE SCENARIO
FOR LOWEST RH TODAY
