...Another Mostly Dry Stretch After Today...
.DISCUSSION...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will move through today and
this evening. Many areas will receive a wetting rain and a few
places could see around an inch. However, some areas will remain
mostly dry, and with very dry antecedent conditions, this rain is
not expected to have a significant impact on future fire weather
conditions outside of the immediate future. The next chance of
rain seems to be Sunday and it looks scattered again. Relative
humidities will drop for tomorrow and especially Friday. Minimum
values in the 30 to 40 percent range are expected. Winds should
generally be around and under 10 mph for the next few days.
