DISCUSSION
10AM UPDATE - HOURLY FORECASTS UPDATED WITH SLIGHT ADJUSTMENT TO
AFTERNOON MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE AND MINIMUM DEWPOINT. THIS RESULTED
IN ABOUT A 10 PERCENT DROP IN MINIMUM RH VALUES FOR THE AFTERNOON.
UPDATES TOOK INTO CONSIDERATION BOTH CURRENT OBSERVATIONS AND LATEST
TRENDS IN MODEL GUIDANCE. WHILE RH COULD DROP SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN THE
UPDATED FORECAST, SOUTHEAST WINDS SHOULD HELP MITIGATE ANY ADDITIONAL
DRYING AND RH IS NOT ANTICIPATED TO DROP MUCH BELOW 50% EVEN IF IT IS
SLIGHTLY WARMER/DRYER THAN THE UPDATED FORECAST.
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION
SOUTHERLY FLOW HAS BECOME DOMINANT ACROSS THE REGION WITH SPEEDS
IN THE 8-12 MPH RANGE. THESE VELOCITIES WILL REMAIN IN PLACE
THROUGH MOST OF THE WORKWEEK WHICH SHOULD KEEP MOISTURE LEVELS
STAGNANT. CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL BE LIMITED DUE TO
THESE MOISTURE LEVELS.
