GOOD MORNING, FOR THE CLAY CORNERS EAST RX BURN, THE MAIN CHALLENGE
TODAY WILL BE LIGHT WINDS.
YOU'LL HAVE SUNNY SKIES, AND THERE IS NO CHANCE FOR RAIN. TEMPERATURES
WILL BE WARM, WITH HIGHS IN THE 70S, BUT DEWPOINTS WILL BE IN THE MID
40S, SO THE END RESULT IS HUMIDITY VALUES IN THE 40S AS WELL. WINDS
WILL BE LIGHT, AND GENERALLY OUT OF THE SOUTH, BUT CONFIDENCE IN THE
WIND DIRECTION IS LOW GIVEN THE LIGHT WIND SPEEDS.
