DISCUSSION
PERSISTENT HOT, DRY, WINDY CONDITIONS WILL PRODUCE
CRITICAL FIRE CONDITIONS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK.
LIGHTER WINDS MOVE IN FOR THE WEEKEND AND BEYOND, BUT SINGLE-
DIGIT RH VALUES AND UNSEASONABLY WARM TEMPERATURES LOOK TO REMAIN
IN PLACE THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. WE ARE ALSO BEGINNING TO
MONITOR THE POTENTIAL FOR DRY LIGHTNING NEXT WEEK, HOWEVER FORECAST
CONFIDENCE IS LOW AT THIS TIME.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
