...Synopsis...
A modest increase in southwesterly flow across the northern Sierra
will promote a weak surface trough within the Northwest into
northwestern Nevada. Modestly dry and breezy conditions will develop
during the afternoon as downslope winds increase to 15-20 mph.
Afternoon RH of 15-20% can be expected. While meteorological
conditions will be somewhat marginal, very dry fuels will support an
elevated fire weather threat today.
