DISCUSSION
IT WILL BE WARMER TODAY AS COMPARED TO YESTERDAY. IN ADDITION, THERE
WILL BE A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LATER TODAY WHICH
WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE STRONG GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS.
SYNOPTIC 20 FOOT WINDS TODAY WILL BE FROM THE EAST TO SOUTHEAST AT 5 TO
10 MPH THIS MORNING. THE ONLY EXCEPTION IS THERE MAY BE A BRIEF PERIOD OF
GUSTY WEST WINDS OVER THE HIGHER PEAKS TO THE WEST OF THE FIRE THROUGH
1000 LOCAL, BUT THESE WINDS WILL EVENTUALLY SHIFT TO THE EAST SOUTHEAST.
BY LATER THIS AFTERNOON, EAST TO SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL INCREASE TO 12 TO
22 MPH BY THIS AFTERNOON.
FOR TONIGHT, THERE COULD BE A BRIEF SHOWER TO THUNDERSTORMS EARLY THIS
EVENING, THEN DRY. WINDS WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT FROM EAST TO NORTH TO
NORTHWEST AS THE EVENING PROGRESSES (PLEASE SEE TABULAR DATA FOR TIMING).
FOR SATURDAY, RED FLAG CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST TO DEVELOP OVER THE BURN
AREA. GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL DEVELOP BY MID TO LATE MORNING AND
INCREASE TO 30 MPH BY AFTERNOON. IT WILL REMAIN DRY. RH VALUES ARE
EXPECTED TO DROP INTO THE TEENS BY EARLY AFTERNOON.
