.DISCUSSION...

Rain showers are currently moving across the area but majority of them
are staying north of the burn site at this time. Scattered rain showers
will continue through the morning and into the early afternoon where I expect
majority of this activity to stay north of the burn site but there will still
remain a chance of a shower through much of the morning. Any rainfall will
be fairly light. Besides this, winds remain out of the northeast to east all
day today at 5-10 mph with some possible gusts to 15 mph this morning before
subsiding during the afternoon. We keep clouds and fairly high RH above 65-70
percent all day, even during the afternoon. Better rain chances move in
tonight and continue into Wednesday with the most widespread rain likely
staying just north of the burn site.
