DISCUSSION
A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO THE FIRE TODAY, WHICH WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL
FOR HEAVY DOWNPOURS, LIGHTNING, AND GUSTY WINDS. ALSO AS THE
PRECIPITATION CHANCES WANE, SOME LOW-END BREEZY CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED. THE HIGHEST CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FALLS
FROM ABOUT 1000 TO 1700. THE OVERALL CHANCE OF WETTING RAIN IS
LOW, BUT IF A HEAVY THUNDERSTORM HAPPENS TO TRACK OVER THE
SITE THERE WILL BE CHANCE FOR A QUICK WETTING RAIN. TONIGHT
INTO FRIDAY CONDITIONS WILL BE DRIER AND WARMER, WITH SOME
GUSTY WINDS IN THE AFTERNOON. IT CONTINUES TO WARM THROUGH
THE WEEKEND, WITH DRYING CONDITIONS AS RH VALUES DROP INTO
THE UPPER TEENS TO LOW 20S IN THE AFTERNOON WITH AFTERNOON
GUSTY WINDS.
