DISCUSSION
SCATTERED AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS WILL FAVOR DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE
RIDGELINE OF THE SANGRE DE CRISTO'S EARLY THIS AFTERNOON, WITH
STORMS FAVORING A S/SE TRACK AWAY FROM THE FIRE LOCATION. HOWEVER,
THE RISK OF GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS REACHING FIRE LOCATION WILL
REMAIN. GUSTY SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS ARE LIKELY TO REACH AROUND THE
SOUTHERN TIP OF THE SANGRE DE CRISTO'S THIS EVENING, WHICH COULD
LEAD TO ERRATIC WIND DIRECTION SHIFTS AT THE FIRE LOCATION. WINDS
WILL CALM BY THE LATE EVENING NEAR THE MIDNIGHT HOUR. LESS
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS FORECAST SATURDAY, BUT SIMILAR IMPACTS
FROM WINDS WILL REMAIN SIMILAR TO TODAY.
