DISCUSSION
SEASONABLY ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL EXIST EACH
AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING DUE TO BREEZY WINDS, VERY LOW HUMIDITY,
AND SEASONALLY HOT TEMPERATURES. WINDS WILL FOLLOW A FAMILIAR
PATTERN WITH SW-W DIRECTIONS DURING THE AFTERNOONS,
DOWNSLOPE/DOWNVALLEY NW-N OVERNIGHT, AND SWITCHING SOUTHEAST TO
SOUTH SHORTLY AFTER SUNRISE (ESPECIALLY WITHIN THE DRIPPING
SPRINGS WASH AND SURROUNDING VALLEY). AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING
GUSTS TO AROUND 20 MPH WILL BE COMMON EACH DAY. AFTERNOON MINIMUM
HUMIDITIES AS LOW AS 5-10% WILL PERSIST, FOLLOWING POOR OVERNIGHT
RECOVERY BETWEEN 15-20%. NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL PREVAIL,
WITH HIGHS AROUND 100F IN THE VALLEY. CLOUD COVER WILL THICKEN
HEADING INTO INDEPENDENCE DAY. A VERY LOW CHANCE (5% OR LESS) FOR
A SHOWER EXISTS SATURDAY, WHICH COULD CAUSE GUSTY AND ERRATIC
WINDS, AND A STRIKE OF LIGHTNING CANNOT BE ENTIRELY RULED OUT.
NOTE...ADDITIONAL FIRE WEATHER FORECAST INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND
