DISCUSSION
AFTERNOON SMOKE DISPERSALS WILL LIKELY BE THE MAIN FORECAST
CHALLENGE AND OBSTACLE FOR THIS BURN IN THE NEAR TERM. RATES LOOK
TO BE POOR BOTH DAYS. THERE MAY BE A VERY BRIEF WINDOW OF FAIR
RATES FROM 1300-1600, ESPECIALLY TOMORROW AFTERNOON, BUT STABLE
CONDITIONS LOOK TO KEEP VENT RATES VERY POOR FOR THE MOST PART
ACROSS THE VALLEY TODAY AND TOMORROW. RATES IMPROVE BY WEDNESDAY.
SNOW CHANCES RETURN TO THE FORECAST BY WEDNESDAY AS WELL, THOUGH
ACCUMULATIONS LOOK TO BE MINIMAL.
