...No Fire Weather Concerns this Week...

.DISCUSSION...
Today is another day with high pressure/light winds. Our next
chance of light precipitation in the form of rain will arrive
tomorrow. While rain will be spotty and light (not a wetting rain),
the associated cloudiness and moisture help keep relative
humidity values moderate to high as breezy southerly winds as high
as 25 MPH develop.
