.DISCUSSION...
For the next several hours, the wind should be prevailing
from the northwest in the 5 to 10 mph range with some
west-to-north variability. As the sun lowers some additional
directional variability may occur but speeds should remain
light or diminish. RH values will be in the 40s through
dusk and temperatures in the 70s. Smoke dispersion should
be good through about  7pm, then begin to fall quickly as
a low-level inversion kicks in under light wind.

The Grassland Fire Danger Index -GFDI- does not account for
precipitation that occurs or any snow on the ground. Please
make appropriate adjustments.
