.DISCUSSION...

At this time critical winds are next expected through this
afternoon, however there is a slight chance that a broken line of
showers/storms develop this evening and move east across west
central Nebraska. If a storm impacts the fire, expect gusty
erratic winds of up to 40 mph for a short while. Otherwise light
winds will slowly increase this afternoon and turn to the south.
Late evening, a weak frontal boundary moves into northern
Nebraska which will cause a wind shift to northerly. Afternoon
relative humidity will lower to near 20 percent and recovery
overnight will be poor. Wetting rains are possible later this
week.
