.DISCUSSION...

Gusty winds this afternoon led to brief dangerous fire conditions
despite RH values staying above 30 percent. Winds should not be as
gusty tomorrow and MinRH values stay over 50 percent. Weather
stays dry for the area until Monday and then periodic rain through
next week.

Fog potential over the next few days: There is a low threat for
patchy fog tonight but confidence increases in fog and frost
Saturday and Sunday morning. Areas below freezing may experience
freezing fog.

Potential for Red Flag Conditions: Gusty winds in place are
creating hazardous fire conditions but RH values remain above 30%
