.DISCUSSION...

This is an update to your forecast near the Badoura area within
southeast Hubbard County. Very dry air mass in place will allow
RH values to dip into the mid 20s percent this afternoon. While
winds will not be high (5-10 mph, infrequent gusts to 15 mph at
the most), these conditions are driven by the very dry conditions
in this region of MN.

Wednesday also holds potential for very dry conditions to continue,
this time in other areas of northwest MN, mainly east of the Hwy 59
corridor. RH values as low as 25 percent are forecast. This along
with increasing southerly winds in the afternoon 10-20 mph, may
drive near critical fire weather conditions Wednesday afternoon.
