DISCUSSION
SURFACE RIDGING WILL KEEP THINGS DRY AND HOT THE NEXT SEVERAL
DAYS. EAST WINDS THROUGH MIDWEEK WILL BRING IN LOWER DEWPOINTS,
RESULTING IN MINIMUM RH'S BETWEEN 25-35% EACH AFTERNOON. THIS
PAIRED WITH DRY VEGETATION COULD LEAD TO QUICK STARTING FIRES
ESPECIALLY IN THE VICINITY OF WARM HARVEST EQUIPMENT. HOWEVER,
LIGHT WINDS SHOULD MITIGATE RAPID FIRE SPREAD. VENT RATES WILL BE
POOR TO FAIR THROUGH AT LEAST MIDWEEK.
