DISCUSSION
DRY AND STABLE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL OVER THE BURN
SITE THROUGH AT LEAST THE NEXT 5 TO 6 DAYS ALONGSIDE LARGELY
CLEAR SKIES. LOW MIXING HEIGHTS AND GENERALLY WEAK FLOW WILL
GENERATE POOR TO FAIR CLEARING DURING THIS PERIOD. LIGHT TERRAIN
DRIVEN FLOWS ARE EXPECTED ON THURSDAY, WITH AN UPTICK IN NORTHERLY
WINDS EXPECTED BY FRIDAY. LOOKING TOWARD THE 22ND TO 23RD OF
JANUARY, THERE IS UPWARDS OF A 30 TO 40 PERCENT CHANCE THAT LIGHT
PRECIPITATION (0.01 INCHES OR GREATER) WILL OCCUR OVER THE BURN
AREA DURING A 24 HOUR PERIOD, WITH THE PROBABILITY OF 0.1 INCHES
OR GREATER ONLY REACHING UPWARDS OF 10 TO 20 PERCENT. MOST OF THE
PRECIPITATION WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL BE FAVORED ACROSS NORTHERN
UTAH, LEAVING SOUTHERN UTAH WITH THE SCRAPS AT BEST.
